Open Repair Session at the bib der dinge: Repairing together instead of throwing away
On Tuesday, June 30, 2026, the bib der dinge in Bochum invites you to the open repair session. Starting at 10:00 AM, an inspiring event atmosphere will emerge in the industrial hall on Knüwerweg: People meet, exchange knowledge, tinker with their favorite items, and experience a sustainable event experience with a noticeable audience vibe.
Why it’s worth stopping by
Here, circular economy counts in small ways: Defective everyday objects are checked, sorted, and – if possible – repaired together. This promotes resource conservation, saves money, and conveys practical skills. The format connects organization and event management with a low-threshold approach for young and old.
How the repair session works
Bring portable, clean items that can be checked or repaired. Experienced volunteers on-site will help with know-how, tools, and tips. The focus is on learning, participating, and responsible consumption instead of quick purchases.
Location, Access, and Travel
The bib der dinge is centrally located between Ewaldstraße and Knüwerweg. Access is via the parking lot at Knüwerweg 1; from there, you can go through the backyard directly to the hall. The location in Bochum Ehrenfeld enables short distances from the city center.
Sustainable Network and Expertise
The bib der dinge is a lighthouse project in Bochum focused on borrowing, repairing, and upcycling, supported by the phase4:institut and in cooperation with municipal partners. Press reports and municipal portals commend the concept as a practical contribution to waste reduction and environmental education.
