With around 177,000 residents, Oldenburg is the third-largest city in Lower Saxony and, with about 17,000 students at its university and the Jade Hochschule, a genuine student city in the northwest. Around the market square, the Wallstraße and the pub quarter, one bar follows the next, while in summer the harbour district scores points with waterside terraces.

New in Oldenburg? Here is how to connect
Oldenburg has around 16,900 students at 2 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 Oldenburg, you see in the app what is happening near you, join spontaneous events or start your own, from a casual meetup to Wallstraße pub quarter. No pressure, no dating, just real people from Oldenburg. S'Up is launching soon on the App Store for iPhone; until then you can join the waitlist.
