Please take look at this sentence! For the life of me, I cannot figure out how to write it so that it does not look terrible! Can you please help me re-word it, if necessary?

On August 20 during the Museum Nights, a night-time orientation around the city was organized in Berlin, and one of the checkpoints was at the "Road XXX LTD” celebrating its 20th anniversary!

Thanks a lot! Emotion: smile

I didn't know what you meant by "Museum Nights", so I searched on the Internet and came up with "Long Night of Museums". Are you talking about the same thing? Also, what do you mean by "one of the checkpoints"?

Hi! Museum Nights are an event where all the museums in one city are open during the night time. And with "checkpoint" I mean a stop where participants of the orientation around the city had to stop for the next clues (like on a scavenger hunt). Did that help?

I am curious to know what the "Road *** LTD" is. I'm wondering too whether it needs an article.

For me also, "celebrating its 20th anniversary" does not connect properly with the rest of the sentence.
