Let’s be honest: loneliness? We’ve all been there. Especially now, when our phones vibrate more often than our social lives do, the city sometimes feels surprisingly empty. But enough with the couch potato blues and scrolling through social media! In this blog post, I’ll show you the events where you can forget about Bumble Friends and meet new people in Leipzig without any cringey blind date situations. And maybe that “hello” will soon turn into a new friendship—so what are you waiting for? 🤝💘

ab 21,90€ Lottery
Secret location

A concert, 2 acts, and no one knows who’s playing. Of course, you can always go to our Geheimkonzerte with your friends. BUT—what do you do if you’re new to town, your friends aren’t in the mood for a concert (for whatever reason?!), or you just want to meet new people? Then you still buy a ticket for the geheimkonzert and use our “GO TOGETHER” option. Here, you’ll be matched with strangers who also have a ticket, and then you can go to the geheimkonzert together, discover new artists together, and get to know each other. Thank me later.

No one has to be alone for long in Leipzig. All you have to do is step out of your comfort zone for just a moment, and then nothing will stand in the way of a new friendship or your next date.
