On November 5, the people of the United States will cast their vote for the next president of the United States. The outcome is uncertain as Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump are neck on neck in the key "battleground" states. What is certain, however, is that the outcome of this election will have a major impact on the future of the United States, U.S.-German relations, and the world as such.

Join us for engaging talks and discussions. Enjoy live music throughout the evening and stay to watch the first election results live!
