Artnight wins three new investors

The platform for creative events, such as in bars or cafés, aims to become one of the leading providers after closing its largest financing round to date.

Artnight, the Berlin-based platform for creative events, has closed its largest financing round to date. STS Ventures, IBB Ventures and F4 are new investors. Existing investors Acton Capital and Monkfish have also invested again.

Aimie-Sarah Carstensen founded Artnight in 2016, a startup that offers "Art Nights" where participants create artwork in bars, cafes and restaurants under the guidance of local artists. Participants do not need any previous artistic experience to take part. The start-up's network now includes more than 500 artists.

By 2023, the company wants to reach pole position in the event industry. A new look for the platform and new experience offerings are expected to help. "Over the past few months, we have steadily expanded our offerings and are offering more and more offline events to meet the high demand from customers," says Artnight founder and CEO Carstensen. For this year, Artnight has already planned more than 20,000 offline events. The start-up also plans to run a campaign on ProSiebenSat.1's TV channels in April and May.
