New in Kaiserslautern, or simply looking for new people? With S'Up you can spontaneously find friends, events and connection in Kaiserslautern — from game nights to sports to the semester party. No dating, just real meetups.
Kaiserslautern sits in the heart of the Palatinate Forest and, with around 14,000 students at RPTU and the university of applied sciences, is a genuine tech and university town. Student life plays out above all in the city centre, with its high density of pubs and its Thursday student nights, while the cultural centre Kammgarn, housed in a former textile factory, keeps the concerts and parties coming. Studying here means knowing the open-air evenings at the Gartenschau, the Hanami festivals in the Japanese Garden and, of course, the FCK atmosphere up on the Betzenberg.
