In addition to sports and cultural events, Mannheim offers many options for student entertainment. Throughout most of the year, there is a weekly party right on the university campus (known as Schneckenhof), which takes place every Thursday. This is the perfect opportunity to make new connections with other students or to unwind after a tough day in the library. Besides that, there are many other bars and nightclubs, with the most popular among students being Tiffany and Zimmer. Another option is student parties organized by various dormitories.
