Every year around May 7, the club celebrates its "Übersee Tag" commemorating Emperor Barbarossa's
conferment in 1189 of the City of Hamburg's right to operate as a port.
Annual Highlight

Members of the Übersee Club gather once a year for a formal banquet at the Atlantic Kempinski Hotel. Speeches are given by the president and a well-known figure from the worlds of commerce, politics, culture and learning.

Gala Übersee Tag (every two years)
The Morning Event
Every second year, the regular Übersee Day is extended into a gala affair. The Mayor of the Free and Hanseatic City of Hamburg traditionally kicks off the additional morning event with welcoming remarks. These are followed by an address from a specially chosen orator.
