European Union's Commission introduces a fresh round of 'Backstage' visits
The city of Bochum is set to offer an exciting new series of tours, providing a unique perspective on various locations within the city. Known as the "Behind the Scenes" tour series, this initiative promises to take visitors on a journey to companies, production facilities, and other unusual locations that are typically off-limits to the public.
One of the highlights of the series is a tour of the Schauspielhaus Bochum, one of Germany's most renowned theaters. For just 8 euros per person, theatre enthusiasts can immerse themselves in the history of this cultural gem, with employees sharing their work experiences both on and off stage. The tour, lasting approximately one hour, will offer insights into the inner workings of the theatre and its rich history. Tickets can be purchased at the Bochum Tourist Information Center at Huestraße 9 and online at https://www.bochum-tourismus.de/besuch-planen/stadtfuehrungen/hinter-den-kulissen-im-schauspielhaus-bochum.html.
Another tour worth mentioning is the G DATA campus tour, which delves into the over 100-year history and heritage of this IT security company. Visitors will gain insights into the fight against cybercrime and the achievements of the past 40 years. The cost of this tour is 15 euros per person and can be booked at the Bochum Tourist Information Center or online at https://www.bochum-tourismus.de/besuch-planen/stadtfuehrungen/hinter-den-kulissen-bei-g-data.html.
The first tour in the series, scheduled for August 25th at the Jahrhunderthalle Bochum, is a behind-the-scenes look at the Ruhrtriennale Festival of Arts and the former gas power plant. A repeat of this tour is planned for 2026.
The series also includes tours of the Festival Center, Technology Museum, Theater Foyer, Production Hall, Jahrhunderthalle, G DATA's campus, and Schauspielhaus. The new series of tours aims to offer an unusual perspective on Bochum, appealing to culture enthusiasts, architecture lovers, and curious explorers.
While there are no identifiable listings of a "Behind the Scenes Tour Series" in Bochum with specific upcoming dates and multiple locations found in the search results, it's worth noting that the only related mention to a behind-the-scenes style event in Bochum is a side event at the Planetarium Bochum with free shows on space topics on July 21 and July 22, 2025[1].
For those interested in attending the Ruhrtriennale itself, tickets can be purchased at the Bochum Tourist Information Center at Huestraße 9. For more information and to book tours, visitors are encouraged to check local event listings or official Bochum cultural websites for updates.
