If the disco ball hanging from the ceiling at Oben isn’t indicative enough of what you’re getting into, then it’s likely that the murmur of the packed crowd or the dance tunes slowly making their way up the stairs and becoming audible at ground level are telltale signs that a night at Oben isn’t like every other night.

For starters, Oben isn’t your average bar. Rather, this place is in the business of partying, as evidenced by being closed the first half of the week, in order to prepare for the end of it (or perhaps recover from the weekend prior). Get rid of the midweek slump with Wednesday night Ladies Night. The following day is karaoke night, which is really just an excuse to gear up for Friday!

TGIF (short for Thank God It’s Friday) is always a guaranteed good time, with electronic jams, techno beats and mash-up songs going all night long. The parties themselves are often themed, such as moustache nights or neon clothing themes. And why not opt for a cold glass of Astra or Carlsberg for 2,50 Euros to accompany you on the dance floor? There are also Happy Hour specials offered from beginning to end, such as two cocktails for the price of one for the first two hours. This is followed up by Kölsch or sparkling wine for only 1 Euro! As the morning hours sneak up, those who are still in full-swing will be rewarded with free beer, which offers just enough incentive to keep on dancing until the sun comes up.

Oben is located at Markt 16-19, in the Marktpassage, in Siegburg. The closest public transport is U-Bahn and S-Bahn station Siegburg. It’s open Wednesday, Friday and Saturday from 9 p.m. until 5 a.m., and at 6 p.m. on Thursday.
