On a warm, sunny Wednesday evening, as the golden hour lit up Lausanne’s newest rooftop terrace, we gathered with our friends at Sky Switzerland to celebrate the start of summer — and the latest season of And Just Like That…, along with Sky’s lineup of must-watch series.
In a world that’s constantly buzzing, sometimes the best escape is a good show waiting at home and a perfectly chilled cocktail in hand. And on this night, we raised our glasses to both.
Signature drinks were poured, summer fits were flaunted, and somewhere between bites of charcuterie and debates over favorite binge-worthy series, it became clear: this was more than just an apéro. It was a celebration of stories — the ones we stream, the ones we live, and the ones that unfold when community, culture, and cocktails collide.
The Venue: Terrace Cocktail Club
Just around the corner of Lausanne Cocktail Club, is its new sunny rooftop - Terrace Cocktail Club. It offered the perfect urban backdrop for our “Summer in the City” soirée, with views overlooking Rue Centrale and La Cité.
Guests were welcomed with a signature drink (a cosmo, naturally), followed by a discovery of TCC’s stunning cocktail menu. Planchettes piled with cheeses, fruit, and charcuterie made the rounds as conversations flowed — from summer plans to must-watch shows.
A Few Fun Surprises: Photobooths & Raffles
In the age of "pics or it didn’t happen," HappyBooth was there to make sure the memories were captured — they shared their retro photobooth with us for the evening, and our happy smiles were printed on the spot, framed in our very own custom event design.
Upon entry, each guest also received a personal Sky code good for a 1-month free trial (yes, your summer streaming is sorted). But it didn’t stop there — that same code doubled as your raffle ticket.
As the Sky team drew names from a custom The Last of Us metal box, two lucky winners walked away with local gems: an intimate multi-course date night at L’Appart, and a summery lakeside meal at La Vaudaire.
