New in Passau, or simply looking for new people? With S'Up you can spontaneously find friends, events and connection in Passau — from game nights to sports to the semester party. No dating, just real meetups.
Passau lies at the confluence of the Danube, Inn and Ilz rivers and, with around 53,000 residents and over 10,000 students, is a compact student town in Lower Bavaria. The ratio of students to residents makes the old town and the Innstadt across the river a dense district for going out and living, where almost everyone runs into everyone else. Anyone who studies here spends summer evenings on the Innpromenade, catches concerts at the Live Club Zauberberg and parties at the Eulenspiegel Zeltfestival on the Ortspitze.
