Why we recommend it
Uebel & Gefährlich, which translates roughly as nasty and dangerous, is one of Hamburg's most distinctive venues because of where it is: on the fourth floor of the bunker on Feldstraße in St. Pauli. A former bunker makes an unusual setting for a night out, and the venue has two spaces, the main hall, or Saal, used for most concerts and parties, and the smaller Turmzimmer, the tower room, for more intimate shows.
The programme is wide. Concerts cover rock, metal, punk and hip-hop, and club nights bring DJs and electronic acts across techno, trance and other styles, including Latin rave nights. The venue also hosts readings, a science slam and other special formats, so it is worth browsing the listings even if you do not usually go clubbing.
House rules are clear and published on the venue's website. Parties are for over-18s only. For concerts, under-16s must come with a parent or guardian, and 16- and 17-year-olds can attend alone until midnight; alcohol and cigarettes are not allowed for under-18s. Bags should ideally be no larger than an A4 sheet, and drinks, drugs and anything that could be thrown, such as perfume bottles, are not allowed in larger bags. Smoking is only permitted in the designated area or outside. There is one FLINTA toilet and one all-gender toilet, reflecting the venue's awareness policy.
Tickets are sold through online platforms, and popular concerts sell out, so buy ahead. There is no visitor parking, so come by public transport: the U3 stops at Feldstraße, right by the bunker, and bus line 3 also serves the area.
Uebel & Gefährlich suits concertgoers, clubbers and anyone curious to see the inside of the Feldstraße bunker. Check the programme for the Turmzimmer as well as the main hall, as smaller shows there can be the most memorable. Because of the bag rules, it pays to travel light: a small bag or just pockets makes entry quicker. The venue also sells merchandise online, and tickets are handled through xceed and dice, so set up an account in advance if you plan to buy on the day. The awareness approach, with its FLINTA toilet and clear rules, is set out in full on the venue's website, so read it before your first visit.
