Calenberger Neustadt

Calenberger Neustadt is Hannover’s “largest island.” At the confluence of the Ihme and Leine rivers, students hang out at the trendy beach scene or along the green riverbanks. A mainstay of Hannover’s cultural scene is the Leibniz Theater on Kommandanturstraße. In the south, the Schützenfest, Oktoberfest, and Frühlingsfest, as well as major sports and event venues like the Heinz-von-Heiden-Arena, Swiss Life Hall, and Gilde Parkbühne, beckon—pure excitement.
