Tip: Check the venue - whether covered or open air - and make sure you have weatherproof clothing: umbrella, jacket and possibly a change of clothes. If your plans still fall through (literally), we have listed ideas here on how you can make the most of a rainy day in Rhine-Neckar - take a look!
3. how can I best prepare for events in Mannheim, Heidelberg or Ludwigshafen in 2025?
Whether you are a tourist or from the region - with these tips you are ready for an unforgettable time:
- Informier dich frühzeitig und regelmäßig über Events in der Rausgegangen App oder auf unserer Website.
- Schau vorher auf den Wetterbericht und die Website der Veranstaltenden
- Plane deine Anreise: Checke Bus & Bahn -gerade für späte Events wichtig!
- Sei offen für spontane Erlebnisse – oft sind die ungeplanten Abende die besten 💫
4. how can a club night in Mannheim, Heidelberg and Ludwigshafen be really good in 2025?
You want to go partying? Nice! Here are a few tips to help you enjoy the evening to the full:
- Vorab nach Party erkundigen: Musikstil, Eintritt, Dresscode, Öffnungszeiten & Line-Up
- Mit wem?: Frag deine Freund:innen, ob sie mitkommen möchten oder informiere zumindest regelmäßig jemanden, wo du bist und wann du ungefähr zurück kommst.
- Packliste für deine Tasche: Ausweis, Geld, aufgeladenes Handy + Powerbank, Kaugummi, Lippenpflege
- Outfit: Bequem & passend – ideal ist Zwiebellook - insbesondere bei möglichen Temperaturunterschieden zwischen Venue und draußen.
- Rückweg planen: Letzte Bahn? Taxi? Wer kann dich holen?
- und ganz wichtig: Trink genug Wasser und hab ganz viel Spaß!
5. how do I convince my friends to go out with me in Mannheim, Heidelberg or Ludwigshafen in 2025?
Sometimes friends just need a little push - and the best way to give that is with really good arguments:
- Zeig ihnen, was abgeht: Schick ihnen Events über die Rausgegangen App oder teile Highlights auf Instagram. Ob Kino in Heidelberg, Konzert in Mannheim oder Festival in Ludwigshafen – es ist garantiert was für sie dabei.
- Gemeinsam planen: Mach’s konkret! Vorschläge wie „Lass nächsten Samstag aufs Straßenmusikfestival?“ wirken besser als ein „Wollen wir mal wieder was machen?“
- Kombiniere Interessen: Deine eine Freundin mag keine Partys, aber liebt Märkte? Perfekt – wie wär's mit einem Vormittag auf dem Flohmarkt und danach Kaffee trinken?
- Gemeinsame Erlebnisse schaffen: Erinner sie daran, wie schön es beim letzten Mal war. Nichts überzeugt mehr als gute gemeinsame Erinnerungen.
What if no one really comes along? Then be brave - go out on your own. There are so many great events and encounters in the Rhine-Neckar region that it's worth going out on your own. 💜
