Meet new people in Aachen
New in Aachen, or simply looking for new people? With S'Up you can spontaneously find friends, events and connection in Aachen, from game nights to sports to the semester party. No dating, just real meetups.
Aachen sits in the border triangle with Belgium and the Netherlands and, with around 58,000 students, is one of Germany's most densely student-populated cities. City life is shaped by the Pontviertel around the Pontstraße, the so-called Quartier Latin, which runs straight from the RWTH campus to the market square. Anyone who studies here knows pub nights on the Pont, concerts at the Musikbunker and open-air days on the Lousberg.

New in Aachen? Here is how to connect
Aachen has around 57,700 students at 4 universities, in theory the perfect setup to meet new people. And yet the start in a new city often feels lonely: the uni groups have long since formed, and spontaneous meetups die in endless WhatsApp groups where nobody ever commits.
That is exactly why we are building S'Up. Instead of sitting alone in Aachen, you see in the app what is happening near you, join spontaneous events or start your own, from a casual meetup to Pontstraße. No pressure, no dating, just real people from Aachen. S'Up is launching soon on the App Store for iPhone; until then you can join the waitlist.
