24 June 2025: Oxbridge Drinks at La Réserve
We had a great turnout for the Oxbridge drinks which, unusually, was held on a Tuesday – barely a week after our Tripartite Dinner. Members sat both inside and at the tables outside enjoying the balmy June evening.
Tripartite Gala Dinner, 19 June 2025
What an evening! Glorious weather, sparkling company, beautiful music, and excellent food made our Tripartite Gala Dinner at the Golf Club Grand Ducal a true summer highlight. Guests enjoyed drinks on the terrace overlooking the greens, and we were honoured to count H.E. Joanne Olivier, British Ambassador to Luxembourg, among us. After the drinks, we repaired to the banquet room and the evening began with a musical treat from Duo Natalia — Natalia van der Mersch (violin) and Natalia Kovalzon (piano) — who performed Gluck and Sarasate with beauty and fervour. A warm thanks to the Natalias, to Ambassador Olivier, and to all our guests who met up in festive spirits and helped make this a wonderful and memorable summer evening!
29 May 2025, Oxbridge Monthly Drinks
As Beim Lentz was closed for Ascension Day, we had to find a new venue this month. Thanks to Norry (Camsoc), we secured a table at Bazaar instead. Although many members were out of town, a good group still gathered to enjoy a lovely evening together.

AGM 2025
20 May 2025
We just had our AGM at the Kirchberg Campus and I thank all for the good turnout. We said goodbye to three members (Henri Dupong, Linda Chirila and Katia Volodine) and hello to three new members (David Clark, Lidiya Cherneva and Bob Kieffer). The meeting was followed by a blind tasting champagne quiz arranged by Jos van Bommel, which was very popular – even if nearly all of us failed it!
For the Chairwoman’s report please go to the About page.
With very best wishes,
