The Clubkombinat Hamburg e. V. has confirmed its board for the 2026–2028 term following its annual general meeting on April 21, held at Knust.
The German industry body combines continuity with new appointments as it continues to represent and support Hamburg’s club and live music sector.
Seven of the nine previous board members stood for re-election and were confirmed by members.
Re-elected representatives include Katharina Aulbach (Elbdeich eV), Gero Graas (Viva con Agua Arts), Anna Lafrentz, Dennis Poser, Heimo Rademaker (Maria’s Ballroom), Kai Schulz (Die Hebebühne), and Felix Stockmar (MS Stubnitz).
Two new members have joined the board: Petra Scheunemann (Markthalle Hamburg) and Lina Behr (Kollektiv Wach), both bringing experience from Hamburg’s live music ecosystem.
The association also acknowledged the contribution of outgoing board members Mats Lembke (Stellwerk) and Stefanie Sangare (Bar227), who stepped down after several years of involvement.
In a joint statement, managing directors Annkathrin Schwerthelm and Thore Debor said: “First and foremost, we would like to extend our sincere thanks to Mats Lembke and Stefanie Sangare for their dedicated service. We are delighted to welcome the fresh perspectives to our very well-established board. Lina Behr and Petra Scheunemann will bring valuable insights to the association, further strengthening the club network`s ability to act. We look forward to the upcoming term with confidence.”
Founded to represent Hamburg’s club operators and event organisers, Clubkombinat Hamburg e. V. acts as an advocacy and networking body for the local live music and nightlife sector, engaging in policy discussions, cultural initiatives and industry development.
The newly elected board is expected to convene shortly to define strategic priorities for the coming two-year term, with the appointment of a chairperson to follow.
