Rooftop weather report

because we're outside, and this is the Netherlands

The plan for the evening

loosely — it's a party, not a conference
17:00

Doors open

The rooftop opens and the first drinks are poured. Come straight from work, come in costume, come as you are.

18:30

Food o'clock

Proper food appears. Come hungry — nobody parties well on an empty stomach.

20:30

Golden hour

The city turns orange. Mandatory group photo with the skyline — you'll want to be in this one.

21:07

Sunset

The sun drops behind the Euromast and the string lights take over.

21:30

Cake time

38 candles, for real this time. Lungs permitting, they go out in one blow.

23:00

Lights out

The rooftop closes. Whatever happens after that is officially not on the schedule.

Presents (totally optional)

your presence > your presents — but if you insist, claim one below so there are no doubles

€ = small, €€€ = team up — chipping in together on the bigger ones is very much encouraged. Claim here or in the RSVP form (they stay in sync; tap again to undo), and claimed presents disappear so there are no doubles.

Bring your own jam

what song do you love? it goes straight on the party playlist 🎶
