About Alte Hackerei

Alte Hackerei is a vibrant Kneipe with a Biergarten located within the Alter Schlachthof complex in Karlsruhe. The venue features two concert spaces: a main Konzertraum about 75 m² and a secondary Barraum added in 2014, both used for a variety of live music events, gigs, and community performances. Although there isn't a public seating chart, the intimate Konzertraum offers a cozy setting for fans and artists alike, making it a favorite stop for indie and metal acts, local SAU events, and festival showcases like OxFest.
