30 years of LK in the Grand Hall Zollverein - an anniversary full of emotion and commitment

On July 4, 2025, our owner celebrated its 30th anniversary together with over 500 guests - and of course in the magnificent setting of industrial culture.

Our founders and owners Tom Koperek and Sven Robusch welcomed friends, customers, partners, companions and employees to an unforgettable evening. The Mayor of Essen, Thomas Kufen, opened the event with a warm welcome.

TV comedian Markus Krebs then made the room laugh with his typical Ruhrpott humor. The Dutch band Popgunn provided the musical prelude with an energetic live set. And anyone who thought that was it was wrong: in the club area, people danced to the beats of DJ Phil Fuldner until the early hours of the morning.

Sven Robusch and Tom Koperek were really keen to raise funds for the Ronald McDonald Foundation, which runs a temporary home for seriously ill children and their families in the Gruga. Together with all the guests, over 10,000 euros were collected - a fantastic result! The two say a heartfelt "thank you" for the generosity of all donors!

30 years of LK - that's 30 years full of ideas, projects, encounters and success stories. This anniversary was celebrated in style, with fun and an open heart for a good cause.
