Objectives
The premises offer an inviting ambience for social gatherings. Here, friends can meet and make new acquaintances while pursuing their musical, creative and sporting interests. The diverse rooms offer a wide range of activities.
Table football, billiards, Playstation and table tennis are just some of the options available to young people. The spacious gym with mirrored walls is ideal for dancing and sports. The stage with a large screen is regularly used for events and concerts, but also for karaoke evenings.
Drinks and snacks are available to young people free of charge at all times. The well-equipped kitchen invites you to try your hand at culinary experiments. We carry out outreach work with our play mobile to reach children and young people in their own environment. If required, we also provide advice, accompany visits to the authorities and offer support in every situation. We also organize vacation games and camps and carry out various projects to give children and young people a wide range of experiences. JUKOMM always strives to keep up with new trends and visitor preferences in order to continuously expand its range of services.
Your support helps
help us to implement and expand projects and offers. This allows us to further differentiate our target group and reach more children and young people. Especially those who have few opportunities for leisure activities and informal education due to their living conditions.
