Molotow

Live club with tradition

Where the Beatles once sang for hours night after night, night owls now party to indie sounds, punk vibes and impressive live gigs at Molotow on the Reeperbahn.

Since 1990 the Molotow inspires fans of indie, punk, post-rock, with live concerts and brings internationally known bands on stage. Famous bands like The White Stripes, Mumford & Sons, The Hives, Mando Diao, Wir sind Helden and much more already played at the club at St. Pauli before they got commercially successful.

Poetry slam, pub quiz, parties or readings

People of Hamburger especially like the club for its diverse program that differs from regular concert nights. Artists from all genres find a platform here. Also poetry slam, pub quiz, parties or readings are happening now and then.

Moreover, the Molotow is one of the clubs that hosts the Reeperbahn Festival every year.  In this time of the year, the Molotow is still one of the best clubs of the city where you can enjoy newcomer and noncommercial bands from all over the world. 

For the 13th time, Clubkombinat Hamburg e.V. honoured the Hanseatic city's club and event scene in eleven categories in 2023. Molotow was one of three nominated clubs to win the "Best Club of the Year 2023" award and the "Favourite Club 2023" audience award.
