If you're not yet ready to settle back into your cozy four walls for winter hibernation, you're sure to find one or two nice autumn events in this list. From harvest thanksgiving markets to music festivals, everything is covered.

A beautiful side table from Paris or valuable pieces of furniture from England? You can find them in Hamburg, if anywhere, then at the Antique Design Market at the Colonnaden. Across from the Alster, from May to November, you can find everything that your antique heart desires.

But that also means that it will soon be over for this year! Hunters and collectors should therefore go to Hamburg's longest summer terrace on September 18, 2022 (date subject to change) between 10 am and 4 pm. Even in case of bad weather worth a visit!
