Rooftop Thursdays

This summer, we are celebrating the Glyptotek’s two new French exhibitions: Gauguin & Kihara – First Impressions and Degas’ Obsession. To mark the occasion, music curator and DJ Mademoiselle Jekel has created a playlist from her collection of original French vinyl records. Look forward to chansons, pop, beat, and Yé-yé to set the mood. The bar will also offer delightful French treats.

About Rooftop Thursdays

Rooftop Thursdays is the Glyptotek’s summer bar on the museum’s rooftop terrace. The bar is open every Thursday from May 8th to August 28th.

In case of bad weather, the rooftop terrace will close. It is the previous day's weather forecast that determines whether the bar will open on the day (this is due, among other things, to considerations regarding staff scheduling and food preparation).

Remember, we always have coolec drinks and delicious snacks in the museum's café, Picnic in the Winter Garden.

About DJ Mademoiselle Jekel

Mademoiselle Jekel is a music curator and Francophile DJ with a passion for French vinyl records from the 50s and 60s. Her crackling records have recently made their way to cocktail bars in Paris, New York, and London, and now she’s bringing her atmospheric sound universe to the Glyptotek’s rooftop.

Practical Information

An elevator is available to the rooftop terrace, but there are an additional ten steps up to the bar.
