FAQ Event Space

The AStA Stadtcampus is a student-administered space for other students which can be booked for various types of events.

Cultural events in a student or university context, conferences, readings, lectures/seminars, team meetings, Fachschaft meetings and many more. In principle, we can accommodate any event that has a student benefit. Private events such as birthdays, graduation parties, etc. are not permitted.

You can make a booking via the room booking tool above. You are also welcome to order snacks and drinks on commission, which we will then hand out to you at the handover. The confirmation of the booking can take several weeks. However, if you need it urgently, you can send an email to stadtcampus@asta.upb.de.

Student groups and public events will be given priority in the allocation process.

We do not charge rent for the use of the space, only a small maintenance fee that is used for the regular purchase of cleaning supplies, trash bags, etc. This may vary depending on event size and length.

The event space is equipped with Eduroam and Freifunk, as well as a projector in both event rooms with various connections (including VGA, HDMI), and a mixing console, which is connected to two permanently installed boxes. We do not provide a laptop.

In the kitchen you will find everything you need for an event: Glasses (soft drink, cocktail, champagne, wine, beer and shot glasses), cups, plates, cutlery, two coffee machines, a kettle and two refrigerators.

No. You can use the caterer that suits your own taste. When using a catering service, it is important to plan delivery and pick-up, as both must be done within the booked period and cannot be handled by the AStA staff.

With pleasure! But make sure that you keep the window on the side of the grill closed. Gas for the grill you can also get from us, this we charge according to consumption. Please note that the grill must be cleaned by you after use.

Yes, you are definitely responsible for leaving the area clean. Preferably the way you would like to find it for your event. Cleaning utensils are available at the Stadtcampus. If you do not want to clean the area yourself, we will be happy to arrange a cleaning company for you in advance. We recommend this especially if you are planning an event that is expected to leave a lot of dirt.
