Football fever: Cologne is preparing for European Masters 2008

Cologne (HS) – The Event on the highest level in the city will take place over the Roof of Cologne. Preparations in the Presidential Suite of the Cologne Marriott Hotel are ongoing.

Soon the ball will be rolling again. While the last preparations for the football EM are getting up to speed, the football freaks are getting themselves in the right mood for the matches. Everything starts on June 7th. Also in the Presidential Suite the “Dom-Suite” of the Cologne Marriott Hotel, the first preparations have already started. First of all, the 30 square meters squared grand terrace over the city’s roof top with a great view to the Cologne Cathedral has been equipped with new stylish furniture and gets prepared for the forthcoming EM barbecue. From June the 7th, the games are shown on a huge screen in the “Dom-Suite” and on the terrace the hotel team is readying the barbecue. So nothing can stand in the way for business celebration for up to 10 people or the private event. While football-freaks are having a fever over the roofs of the city, also on the ground floor in the “Plüsch-Bar & Lounge” the party is running. In front of a huge screen with a lot of Kölsch the fans are celebrating. During the breaks or after the matches, the supporters can play football themselves at the Wii-Station.
