When I visited some friends in Leipzig, we ended up going to Werk 2 on a Saturday night. It was…read moresurprisingly fun. Paid 5 bucks at the door, which was not to bad and made our way in. Music was alright most of the time, drinks are not really cheap, but also not expensive and the only thing I really didn't like was the fog they push on the dance floor -- for whatever reason. One thing I noticed about this place (or maybe Leipzig in general) is that even though most of the girls are pretty there's also not too many (or one) that sticks out from the crowd -- either way. Everyone gets their hair done every week, they all shop at H&M and also frequently go tanning. Anyway, regardless. This is a fun place to hang out for a while on a Friday or Saturday night. The people had fun, lots of dancing going on.

One of my all-time​ favorite places in Leipzig. Interesting…read morearchitecture, great parties, a renaissance fair on top of it during WGT, a solid menu and delicious shakes! You can get lost in these old ruins, but who cares when you can party hard or slurp something delicious? On hot summer days,​ it's a special treat to sit down there under an umbrella and enjoy the peace and quiet. Easy to get there by car or public transport or bike. Not sure about handicap access tho... (lots of stairs, but they might have a service elevator?) /// Einer meiner Lieblingsorte in Leipzig! Interessante Architektur, großartige Parties, Mittelaltermarkt auf dem Dach während des WGTs und eine solide Karte mit besonders hervorzuhebenden Shakes! Man kann sich schon auch drinnen verlaufen, aber wen stört das schon beim ausgelassen feiern oder wenn man was leckeres zu schlürfen in der Hand hat? An heißen Sommertagen kann man ganz wundervoll in einem der kühlen Innenhöfe unter dem Sonnenschirm sitzen und die Ruhe genießen. EInfach zu erreichen, sowohl mit Auto als auch mit den Öffentlichen oder per Fahrrad. Über die Möglichkeiten für Menschen mit eingeschränktr Mobilität bin ich mir allerdings nicht so sicher, es gibt einen haufen Treppen... aber vllt. gibt es ja einen Aufzug den ich noch nicht entdeckt habe?

One of my favorite venues in the world. Who doesn't love partying in an old medieval castle! The…read morekitchen is also really good. Bar staff can be very busy at times. Cool talent booked. Can't wait to go back.

DarkFlower is Leipzig's dedicated alternative/gothic/dark nightclub. It's open regularly every…read moreThursday, Friday and Saturday, as well as for special parties. Hours are typically from 9pm till 6am. You can usually count on fun music and a nice scene in a cool-looking space. When I visited last they were doing and 80's pop & alternative party, which was a mix of the new wave hits an American would expect mixed with more obscure (to me) German selections. The only drawback (and thus a star docked) is that the place really needs better AC - it can get crazy hot and stuffy once the dancing gets going!

I'm not sure why the prices are listed as "ultra high end". There's always drink specials, and the…read moredrinks aren't expensive compared to what you'd pay at other venues. Music is really hit-and-miss. Sometimes the back room closes early, and sometimes the entire club closes early, depending on how many people are there. Depending on the number of people and the time of year, it can get really hot. One time I actually went home to change clothes! It's an okay place to go if you're bored or looking to do something last minute, but I wouldn't go out of my way to plan to go here unless I wasn't able to get a ride or bus it to Berlin.
