Everything you missed at Hotelnacht 2024
Who says you can’t party in January? Not Amsterdam’s creative crowd, who turned up in droves to Hotelnacht on the 13th. The annual hotel festival gives locals a weekend to be tourists at home by exploring hotels across the city – and it’s always a smash hit.
For this one-night-only party, we joined forces with street art favourite STRAAT Museum and Dream Unit, the pop-up store presenting Amsterdam’s newest need-to-know names in fashion. This was the night style, art and music merged together like never before, and it all happened at the art’otel Amsterdam Gallery.
By day, the focus was on Dream Unit, as the pop-up shop kitted out Amsterdammers in exciting new talent. By night, the Gallery transformed into an electric party as DJs UNAUNA, Foxy Fahrenheit and Sandor Dayala – known for spinning decks at the city’s edgiest clubs – had 250 guests dancing all night. Behind them, urban artist Tom Kiewra entranced partygoers with a live painting of a mural, while guests contributed to a piece of vibrant live art.
The dance floor was jumping, the art was interactive, Don Julio Tequila and Fever Tree made sure the drinks were flowing, and the fashion was absolutely Amsterdam. Here’s everything that went down at Hotelnacht.
