Meet new people in Wiesbaden
New in Wiesbaden, or simply looking for new people? With S'Up you can spontaneously find friends, events and connection in Wiesbaden, from game nights to sports to the semester party. No dating, just real meetups.
Wiesbaden is the capital of the state of Hesse and, according to official statistics, has around 289,000 residents. With around 14,000 students (Hochschule RheinMain alone brings about 9,500 to the city), young life centres mainly on the multicultural Westend, the Rheingauviertel and the city centre with its comparatively affordable rents. Instead of classic campus bustle, the cultural centre Kulturzentrum Schlachthof, the bars around Sedanplatz and the big city festivals around Schlossplatz and Wilhelmstraße shape daily life between lectures and the weekend.

New in Wiesbaden? Here is how to connect
Wiesbaden has around 13,800 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 Wiesbaden, you see in the app what is happening near you, join spontaneous events or start your own, from a casual meetup to Kulturzentrum Schlachthof. No pressure, no dating, just real people from Wiesbaden. S'Up is launching soon on the App Store for iPhone; until then you can join the waitlist.
