Sojus 7 – the socio-cultural heart of the city

Sojus 7 offers an ambitious program of cultural events with supraregional appeal: music events, art exhibitions, media educational programs, discussion evenings, workshops, readings, film evenings, or simply a relaxed night in the pub to end the day. This program is organized by numerous inner-city partnerships, but, above all, by voluntary cultural workers who can give free rein to their creative streak here.

You can find the current program at www.sojus.de.

Dancing indoors and outside!

Besides the program of events in the rooms of Sojus 7, the team organizes two large open-air events every year:

The “Draussen Tanzen” (Dancing Outdoors) festival in May takes place in the immediate vicinity of the old part of town. Here, over 40 volunteers organize a two-day music festival with bands from the music genres of indie, electro, world music and rock music.

The Sojus-7 boat tour is a punk rock festival on the Rhine. While the boat sails up and down the Rhine, guests can enjoy DJs on deck or dance in front of the stage to the music of international bands.

Meeting points

Sojus 7 is regarded as a hotspot for the independent scene in Monheim am Rhein. Besides an event hall with an adjoining café, the venue also has studios, rehearsal rooms, a recording studio, workshops and rooms for meetings.

The headquarters at Kapellenstrasse 38 will resume operations in the spring or summer of 2023, after the renovation work is completed.

It has satellite venues in the café "Zum goldenen Hans" at Ernst-Reuter-Platz 14 and the "Bier- und Musik-Salon" (B.U.M.S.) at Robert-Bosch-Strasse 1, in the premises of the former tennis and paintball hall.

The digital venue is Radio Rakete, Sojus 7’s internet radio channel, with music, radio plays, discussion rounds and live broadcasts of Sojus 7 events.
