Questions

Is everything here really free in the Ruhr region?

Everything the organiser lists as free or pay-what-you-like in the Ruhr region. Sometimes you have to sign up first, or the organiser asks for a donation (that is stated with the outing). Check the organiser's site before you go.

How do you choose the picks?

In order of what makes it special: one-off or not, who plays and how well it fits the season. Where we can, a pick says why.

What is not included?

Online events, lectures, courses, weekly classes, church services and business meetings.
