Heidelberg: Neon Paint Night with Drinks and DJ

Imagine a warm Heidelberg evening where you get to let your creativity run wild in a setting that combines art, music, and a splash of neon magic. The Neon Paint Night hosted by SCHILLING ROOFBAR offers just that. Over 1.5 hours, you’ll join a relaxed, lively environment at Frauenbad Heidelberg, where you’ll paint with neon colors under blacklight, sip a free aperitif, and groove to the beats spun by a live DJ.

What makes this experience especially appealing is its social vibe — whether you’re a seasoned artist or just looking for a fun night out, everyone is encouraged to participate. Two things we particularly love are the all-inclusive setup that provides all painting materials and the opportunity to take home your glowing masterpiece as a souvenir of a truly memorable night.

A minor consideration? The focus on getting a little messy means wearing clothes that can handle some splashes of neon paint. Still, that’s part of the fun.
