After orientation, every first year student will know Café de Fuik, Tweekeerbellen and the El Sombrero. But Nijmegen has more to offer you. So: where does every student have to go at least once? Today: get active!

#1 LUX film night No money, but still in the mood for a movie? Come to LUX Cinema’s student night on Monday evenings. For only €5 you can see Emma Watson, Samuel L. Jackson or the Minions shine on the white screen.

#2 Beer-tasting at De Hemel “Send me to hell; they don’t serve beer in heaven!” Well, you couldn’t be more wrong. Nijmegen is home to special beer brewery De Hemel, the oldest in the Netherlands. You can combine a beer-tasting session with a guided tour of the brewery, including tasting a few heavenly beers.

#3 Escape Boat And you thought an escape room was cool! Well, think again! The Escape Boat offers not only four escape rooms, but also a huge escape arena, with room for up to sixty people to play a team battle. Will you manage to escape from this sinking ship?

#4 Trampoline jumping at Bounz Remember the olden days? Jumping on the trampoline for hours on end, and then joining your parents for dinner. Well, those days may be gone, and you may have to do the cooking yourself (or have very sweet flatmates), but Bounz offers a trampoline arena where stopping is not an option.

#5 Outdoor Swimming Pool You think swimming in the Waal is too risky? Then come to the Goffertbad. Here you can enjoy the unlimited advantages of outdoor swimming, without the dangers of open water. And upon climbing out of the pool, you can show off your beach body in Nijmegen’s ‘Central Park’.
