Rooftop Brunch & Beats (Tickets Required)
Rooftop Brunch & Beats (Tickets Required)
**Brunch • Beats • Rooftop Vibes** Sundays in Zurich deserve a better soundtrack. On **Sunday, May 31**, we’re heading up to the rooftop terrace of **Hiltl Dachterrasse** for a special **Rooftop Sunday Social** – where brunch culture meets house music and great company. From **10:00 to 14:30**, the legendary rooftop of Hiltl turns into a daytime playground with brunch, drinks, sunshine, and electronic beats. Think of it as the Sunday version of the new **coffee rave trend** — relaxed, social, and full of energy, just earlier in the day and with amazing views over Zurich. **Zurich Together will have its own table**, so our crowd can start the day together, grab brunch, and warm up with familiar faces. From there, you can stay with the group or mingle with the wider party crowd on the terrace and dancefloor. Expect a fun mix of locals and internationals, open-minded people between **18 and 45**, and the kind of atmosphere where conversations start easily and Sundays suddenly become much more exciting. Sunlight, good music, brunch plates, day drinks, and a rooftop dancefloor — not a bad way to start the day. ☀️ **What to expect** • Rooftop brunch with beautiful city views • House music & sunny daytime vibes • Zurich Together table to meet our crowd • Social atmosphere – easy to meet new people • Dancing, drinks, and brunch on the terrace 🎟 **Tickets** Use our **15% discount code**: **Zurich-Together31** Get tickets here: https://tickets.brunch-party.ch/events/brunch-party-hiltl-dachterrasse-2026-05-31 Come solo or bring friends — either way, it’s the kind of Sunday where breakfast meets bassline. **Brunch. Beats. Rooftop.** Please note that tickets are **non-refundable**, but you are welcome to **transfer or sell your ticket to another person** if you’re unable to attend. Please join WhatsApp Chat once you will make your mind to come over: https://chat.whatsapp.com/GCY5lXrlMMlCE1uKmQc1C0

Sound Healing with Aurelia
Sound Healing with Aurelia
Good news for everyone who missed my first Sound Healing in Zurich. There’s a second date coming up at the end of May🙌 "Aurelia’s sound journey is like a gentle invitation into a luminous dream world. With her masterfully played instruments and her enchanting voice, she creates a space where you can truly arrive within yourself and let go completely. What makes it so special: even the silence between the notes is artfully held and a pure delight. An experience that deeply touches the soul." (Hans)
Urban Sketching @ Klausbrunnen
Urban Sketching @ Klausbrunnen
< \* \* \* English version below \* \* \* > DE Diesmal zeichnen wir rund um den Klausbrunnen im Zürcher Oberdorf. Der Brunnen geht auf einen Antrag aus dem Jahr 1588 zurück und gehört damit zu einem Stück gewachsener Stadtgeschichte. Rund um den Platz gibt es viele engen Gässchen in denen ihr sowohl Schatten als auch viele malerische Winkel findet, die darauf warten, skizziert zu werden. Treffpunkt: Auf der kleinen Platzanlage an der Ecke Neustadtgasse / Frankengasse, direkt beim Klausbrunnen. Bitte bringt euer eigenes Zeichenmaterial und idealerweise einen kleinen Klapphocker mit. Keine Vorkenntnisse nötig. Wir skizzieren rund 2 Stunden, allein oder in kleinen Gruppen, ganz entspannt. Danach treffen wir uns wieder, zeigen unsere Sketches und machen ein Gruppenfoto. Als Leitfaden dienen die Werte der Urban Sketchers: https://urbansketchers.org/de/who-we-are/#mission/ #uskzurich ⸻ EN This time we will sketch around the Klausbrunnen in Zurich’s Oberdorf. The fountain goes back to a request from 1588 and is therefore part of the city’s layered urban history. Around the square there are many narrow lanes where you will find both shade and plenty of picturesque corners waiting to be sketched. Meeting point: On the small open square at the corner of Neustadtgasse / Frankengasse, right by the Klausbrunnen. Please bring your own drawing materials and, ideally, a small folding stool. No prior experience required. We sketch for about 2 hours, solo or in small groups, at an easy pace. Afterwards we regroup, share our sketches and take a group photo. As always, we follow the Urban Sketchers values: https://urbansketchers.org/who-we-are/#mission/ #uskzurich

Feel Good Friday: POWER BALLAD  at the Gateway Film Center + SHAKE NO. 8!
Feel Good Friday: POWER BALLAD at the Gateway Film Center + SHAKE NO. 8!
Join us as we get together to see Paul Rudd in the latest comedy-drama-musical from John Carney, POWER BALLAD! The film follows a washed-up wedding singer, a fading boy band singer and a stolen hit song. Here’s a description, trailer and plan for this event: DESCRIPTION: Rick, a washed-up wedding singer, and Danny, a fading boy band star, bond over music and a late-night jam session. When Danny turns Rick's song into a hit, Rick sets out to reclaim the recognition he believes he deserves. Power Ballad is written/directed by John Carney, the master of the modern musical and creative mind behind Once, Begin Again and Sing Street! It stars Paul Rudd, Nick Jonas, Peter McDonald, Marcella Plunkett, Havana Rose Liu and Jack Reynor. BUZZ & ACCLAIM: The film premiered to rave reviews at this year’s Dublin International Film Festival where critics call it “a sure-fired crowd-pleaser” that “just might be the feel-good hit of the year!” Others say, “Paul Rudd delivers a career-best performance in this charmer” that’s both “hilarious and deeply moving." The film continues John Carney’s “long run of success with yet another charmer” and “a sharp, hopeful crowd-pleaser that strikes the right notes!” SUMMER OF ICE CREAM, VOL 2: SHAKE NO. 8! Ranked the #1 Ice Cream Shop in Columbus, this is a perfect early stop on our Summer of Ice Cream! Their menu uses made-from-scratch recipes in an array of traditional, specialty and vegan shakes, hot cocoa, crepes, waffle sticks, specialty coffee & espresso, and more! Their specialty shakes are as delicious as they are over-the-top and they offer an extensive vegan menu! You can check out their full menu here: [https://www.shakeno8.com/menu.php](https://www.shakeno8.com/menu.php) PLAN: Please purchase your ticket for the 6:45pm showing and we’ll meet in the upstairs lobby between 6:25 and 6:35pm! Advance ticket purchase is advised for this opening night showing! Once you have yours, please list your seat number in the Comments section of this event. We'll head to nearby Shake No. 8 immediately following the show! Should be a fun one, Dan
