Frankfurter Hof

It’s 11.30PM on a warm Saturday night in August and Frankfurt’s annual Museum Embankment Festival is in full flow. With bars, a somewhat random selection of stalls selling everything from pro-cannabis campaign badges to jewelry and craft wares, and music stages stretching down both sides of the mighty Main river, it’s easy to see why this predominantly business-focussed city feels alive with decadence this evening.
