Meet new people in Graz

New in Graz, or simply looking for new people? With S'Up you can spontaneously find friends, events and connection in Graz, from game nights to sports to the semester party. No dating, just real meetups.

With around 308,000 residents, Graz is Austria's second-largest city and, with some 50,000 students, the country's second-largest university hub after Vienna (Wien). The university quarter in Geidorf between Leonhardstraße and Heinrichstraße and the alternative Lend district around the Kunsthaus and Lendplatz shape student life among cafés, bars and clubs. Those who study here meet up along the banks of the Mur, party at the PPC or the Postgarage, and experience electronic music and discourse at the Elevate Festival around Dom im Berg and the Schlossberg.

New in Graz? Here is how to connect

Graz has around 50,000 students at 5 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 Graz, you see in the app what is happening near you, join spontaneous events or start your own, from a casual meetup to Geidorf university quarter. No pressure, no dating, just real people from Graz. S'Up is launching soon on the App Store for iPhone; until then you can join the waitlist.
