Sender is where Christian Gamp and his team produce the programmes for alternative radio station GDS.FM. The venue is a magnet for music-lovers who are not interested in mainstream hits but are keen to explore a range of different genres.

Kon-Tiki
Kon-Tiki has been part and parcel of Niederdorf since the 1950s. But Zurich’s nightlife is changing, and a few years ago it was very nearly sayonara to this venerable tiki bar. But the traditional bar has been rescued by fresh ideas, daylight – and a little CBD. It also has a new team, which includes Tassia Batista and Manuel Schaltegger.
Splendid Piano Bar
In the mid-1970s Rose-Marie Obrist took over a luxury hotel in Niederdorf that had become rather run down. Today it is a well-known piano bar that has hosted some big names, such as the late Russell Henderson.
Sihl Records
Andreas Müller is a DJ, label founder and shop owner: Sihl Records is half coffee shop, half record store, where you will find the latest releases alongside the most valuable musical finds. And the store doesn’t just attract local DJs.
