About Jahrhunderthalle Bochum

Jahrhunderthalle Bochum is a storied cultural venue built on the site of a historic gas-power station. As a Ruhrtriennale anchor in Bochum-West, it hosts a wide range of performances across three halls: Dampfgebläsehaus, Pumpenhaus, and Turbinenhalle. With flexible staging, multiple grandstands, and an ever-changing seating layout tailored to each event, this venue offers a unique live experience in the heart of Bochum. Whether you're here for a concert, festival, or award ceremony, we’ve got you covered with practical details to help you secure your seats with ease.

Accessibility is a key focus at Jahrhunderthalle Bochum. The on-site Westpark/Jahrhunderthalle garage provides convenient parking (approx. €5 per day) and operates cashlessly. Note that the environmental zone green sticker is required for access. For public transit, take tram lines 302 or 310 from Bochum Hauptbahnhof to Bochumer Verein/Jahrhunderthalle, then enjoy a short 5-minute walk to the venue. If you’re planning a stay, nearby hotels like Welcome Parkhotel Bochum and Moxy Bochum offer comfortable options within a short radius. We’ve also curated affiliate recommendations for nearby dining and accommodations to simplify your visit. Remember, every event at the three halls can differ in seating arrangements, so check the specific event details for your show before you go.
