What Should You Bring to Enjoy Hamburg’s Sommerfest Fully?

As the sun shines brighter, Hamburg transforms into a vibrant playground with the arrival of Hamburg Sommerfest, a celebration that embodies the city's zest for life. Whether you're a local or just visiting, perhaps to tee off at one of Hamburg's prestigious golf courses like our very own Golf Lounge Resort, Sommerfest is an experience not to be missed. To ensure you soak up every drop of joy this summer festival has to offer, we've curated a list of essentials to bring along.

1. Comfortable Footwear

Sommerfest sprawls across various locations in Hamburg, promising a plethora of activities, food stalls, and live performances. Comfortable shoes are your best friend here, as you'll likely find yourself wandering from one exciting attraction to the next. Pack a pair that's both stylish and supportive, because at Sommerfest, every step leads to a new adventure.

2. Sunscreen & Sunglasses

Hamburg's summer sun can be quite generous. Protect your skin with a broad-spectrum sunscreen (at least SPF 30) and reapply regularly. Don't forget trendy sunglasses to shield your eyes. Not only will they protect your vision, but they'll also add a cool touch to your festival look.

3. Reusable Water Bottle

Stay hydrated with a refillable water bottle. Sommerfest encourages sustainability, and you'll find water refill points throughout the festival grounds. Contribute to the eco-friendly vibe while ensuring you have water whenever you need it.

4. Light & Versatile Clothing

Summer in Hamburg can be unpredictable. Dress in layers with light, breathable clothing that can easily be added or removed as the temperature fluctuates. This approach will keep you comfortable whether you're enjoying the outdoor golf simulators at our Golf Lounge Resort before heading out or dancing to your favorite band at Sommerfest.

5. Power Bank for Your Devices

With the plethora of photo opportunities and the need to stay connected, your devices' batteries can quickly drain. A portable power bank is a lifesaver, ensuring you can capture every moment and navigate through the festival map on the official Sommerfest app without a hitch.

6. Cash & Card

While many stalls at Sommerfest accept card payments, it's always a good idea to have some cash on hand for the occasional vendor who might only accept Euros. Plus, it's a good backup in case of any unexpected network issues.

7. Small First-Aid Kit

A small kit with essentials like band-aids, antiseptic wipes, and pain relievers can be a thoughtful inclusion. It's always better to be prepared for minor mishaps, allowing you to focus on the fun.

8. Reusable Bag

For all the unique souvenirs, festival merchandise, and perhaps a few golf-themed goodies from our resort's shop that you might want to pick up, bring a reusable bag. It's eco-friendly and practical.

Conclusion

Hamburg’s Sommerfest is a tapestry woven with music, laughter, and community spirit. By packing these essentials, you're not just preparing for a day out; you're ensuring a memorable experience that's as smooth as a hole-in-one at our Golf Lounge Resort. Whether you're a golf enthusiast looking to unwind after a tournament or simply a fan of summer festivities, Sommerfest has something for everyone. So, gear up, and let the joy of Hamburg’s summer festival envelop you!
