Reeperbahn Tours Halted Friday in Hamburg Over Life‑Threatening Snowstorm Warning

Olivia Jones sets up indoor access with an alternative program for visitors already in St. Pauli.

Overview

  • The German Weather Service issued an official severe‑weather alert for Hamburg from Friday morning, warning of strong snowdrifts and danger to life.
  • Tour operator Kult-Kieztouren, run by Scoopcom GmbH, canceled all Friday tours, a first weather-related full suspension in roughly 20 years.
  • The company said safety comes first and told customers they will receive an alternative program.
  • Olivia Jones said she has never experienced conditions like this and will open the Olivia Jones Bar from 4:30 p.m., with guides showing select stops that remain reachable.
  • The storm system known as Elli leaves the timing for resuming regular tours dependent on how the weather develops.
