From classic elegance to innovative mixology - each bar tells its own story in a glass. Hotspots such as Fitz's Bar, Law & Order and Super Lyan<\/a><\/em> bring international flair to the capital, while places like Bar Oldenhof and Dutch Courage<\/em> rather honor the authentic cocktail tradition.<\/p>\n

During guest shifts, international bartenders temporarily take over the helm, bringing a breath of fresh air and new flavors. Add live DJs, cocktail walks and bar takeovers and you have a week where no night is ever the same.<\/p>\n
