There’s nothing quite like Hafen 2 in Frankfurt. It’s a cinema, concert hall, bar, café, petting zoo, and art exhibition space all in one. There’s something for everyone here.
In the Spring and Summer this is one of the best places to be, especially on a lazy Sunday. There’s nothing quite like watching a film or live band with the Main river as your backdrop. There’s also a circus tent where bands can play in a more traditional club setting, as well as a number of art spaces where you can admire temporary exhibitions.
The café is stocked with coffee and cake, and outdoors It’s really quite kid friendly. Between the petting zoo and the soccer nets, kids always have plenty to do here.
Hafen 2 has also made a statement by being a center for refugees, which I can really appreciate. It’s a progressive space that looks to offer art and culture to people from all walks of life, and we’re always happy to support their work.
If you’re looking for a relaxed atmosphere to catch a concert, movie or show, I can definitely recommend Hafen 2.
