Tante Astrid e.V. - DIY workshop. Events. experiences

Tante Astrid e.V. — A place for creativity, encounters and special experiences

More than just a venue. A place where people come together, discover new things and have a good time together.

Tante Astrid e.V. is at home in the middle of Cologne-Ehrenfeld — a registered association with a simple idea: We want to make life in our city a bit more colorful, more creative and more livable. Bringing people together, creating space for new ideas and facilitating experiences that are often neglected in everyday life.

Because we believe that a lively city needs one thing above all else: places where people can meet, laugh together, get creative and simply feel good.

Our location — loft charm meets creative diversity

Our home is located in beautiful, spacious loft halls on Vogelsanger Straße in Cologne-Ehrenfeld. With their special character and various lovingly designed areas, they offer space for very different experiences.

Whether it's a creative workshop, seminar, team event, a relaxing evening with friends or a private party — our rooms can be used in a variety of ways and can also be rented for your own events.

Sometimes there is tinkering, painting and working together, sometimes learning, partying or simply having a good time. And sometimes it can be really colorful and wild!

Creativity, community and always new ideas

Our range of events is as diverse as the people who come to us.

We offer DIY and sewing workshops, open creative spaces, creative activities, courses for children and adults, seminars, flea markets and unusual event formats.

With our Analog House, we are also creating a conscious antithesis to everyday digital life. This is about real encounters, joint activities and simply putting your smartphone aside. Without pressure to perform, without constant distractions — but with time for yourself and others.

And if you want to leave everyday life behind you in a completely different way, you can simply throw paint at the wall with “Krawall — Lass die Farben fliegen”. After all, being creative doesn't always have to be neat and perfect!

We love trying out new formats. That is why we are constantly developing our program — from creative after-work offers to convivial get-togethers to new ideas for shared experiences.

Experience together — whether as a private group or in a team

Many of our offers can also be booked exclusively as a private group or corporate event.
Whether it's team building, a company outing, a birthday, a meeting of friends or a special occasion: Together, we'll find the right format.

Not every event has to follow a fixed concept. We are happy to respond to individual wishes and work together to consider how they can become a special experience.

Personal, uncomplicated and with a lot of heart

What makes us special? We focus on people.

We focus on personal service, individual advice and an atmosphere in which you feel welcome. Instead of anonymous mass events, we want to create experiences that have real added value, connect and be remembered.

For us, it is not about perfection. It's about the joy of trying things out, about community, about new experiences and sometimes just about having a really good time together.

Our mission: to promote lively cooperation, enable creativity and enrich our neighborhood and city with special encounters and experiences.

Tante Astrid e.V. — colorful, personal, open for new things. And always a good idea for time together.
