Wunderland: The beating heart of the festival

Festival Centre

16.8.-15.9.2024

An der Jahrhunderthalle, Bochum

Festival centre at the Jahrhunderthalle Bochum

For the next three years our new festival centre Wunderland, designed by Belgian architect Olivier Goethals, will extend around the water tower by the Jahrhunderthalle. The beating heart of the festival will bring the Ruhrtriennale’s various different productions together in one place. Enjoy workshops on the piazza underneath the water tower or a coffee on the terrace overlooking the water. You can come along before or after the performances and round off the day in Wunderland.

Produced by Ruhrtriennale.

Catering – Green & love im Wunderland

This year, I AM LOVE will be taking care of our festival visitors. From Wednesday to Friday between 3 p.m. and 8 p.m., at weekends from 12 p.m. to 8 p.m. and on days with performances in the Jahrhunderthalle Bochum, you can look forward to creative and sustainable dishes, daily changing vegetarian and vegan dishes in organic quality, soups, seasonal salads and delicious desserts!

Construction site information

Since 6 August, the A40 has been fully closed between the Bochum-West junction and the Bochum-Harpen junction due to the construction of a new bridge. Visitors to the Ruhrtriennale must be prepared for increased traffic on the diversion routes, which we have summarised for you here.
