Lagerhaus

Über diesen Ort Lagerhaus

Lagerhaus is Bremen's principal alternative cultural venue — a large converted warehouse on Schildstrasse in das Viertel that functions as the city's equivalent of venues like Werk 2 in Leipzig or Kulturzentrum Kampnagel in Hamburg. The venue's queer programming is regular and significant: queer club nights, LGBTQ+ film screenings, community events during CSD week, and political gatherings that reflect das Viertel's explicitly progressive character. The Lagerhaus has a long history of engagement with Bremen's LGBTQ+ community — it was involved in the earliest organised queer events in the city — and that history gives it a credibility that newer commercial venues cannot match. The converted warehouse format means the venue has genuine flexibility: the same space can host an intimate queer arts performance or a 500-person dance night, depending on the programming. The Schildstrasse location is at the heart of das Viertel, adjacent to the Vor dem Steintor gay bar strip, making it part of the same geographical zone as Papillon and the neighbourhood's other LGBTQ+-friendly venues. Check the event programme for queer club nights — they are not weekly but are the highest-quality queer nightlife events in Bremen.
