Meet new people in Düsseldorf
New in Düsseldorf, or simply looking for new people? With S'Up you can spontaneously find friends, events and connection in Düsseldorf, from game nights to sports to the semester party. No dating, just real meetups.
Düsseldorf is the state capital of North Rhine-Westphalia, home to around 619,000 residents and roughly 51,000 students across several universities. The old town (Altstadt) is famous as the "longest bar in the world," while young life unfolds in the trendy districts of Flingern and Pempelfort and along the Rhine riverside promenade. If you study here, you know Altbier tours through the pubs, gigs in the clubs, and the big city festivals down by the Rhine.

New in Düsseldorf? Here is how to connect
Düsseldorf has around 50,900 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 Düsseldorf, you see in the app what is happening near you, join spontaneous events or start your own, from a casual meetup to Altstadt. No pressure, no dating, just real people from Düsseldorf. S'Up is launching soon on the App Store for iPhone; until then you can join the waitlist.
