Hamburg will host a summit of the Group of 20 major world economic powers on July 7-8 next year, the German government’s spokesman Steffen Seibert said.
The meeting will likely be held at the northern port city’s congress center.
The venue contrasts with the remote hotel in the Bavarian Alps where Germany hosted last year’s Group of Seven summit, but the government says it “fulfills all the logistical and security demands.”
