With the Picknick Club, we are bringing a weekly, free after-study/after-work format to Mönchengladbach. Every Wednesday from 6 p.m. to 10 p.m. in Geropark, local DJs from different genres provide the right sound for the end of the day.
The event is explicitly aimed at everyone. The concept is deliberately low-threshold: bring your own drinks, friends &
(picnic) blanket - no obligation to consume, no entry fee. Just listen to music together and spend the evening in the park.
Please note: Leave no trace - take your rubbish back with you to keep the park clean!
When? from 20.05. - 15.07. - every Wednesday 18-22h
Where? Geropark Mönchengladbach (by the water)
