There are several places that rent a rehearsal room for a fee, such as:

If you need a stage or a place where to perform, there are several places where you can propose yourself. On the other hand if you want to send an application to a music festival we recommend you the Indiependence Festival, Art May Sound e Upload! [posts_by_checkbox_flag checkbox_flag=”Dove posso esibirmi?”]

If you need a recording studio definitely turn to them. They will surely have a room for you!

[posts_by_checkbox_flag checkbox_flag=”Dove posso registrare?”]

Check out these pages. There is always an active call or competition! Otherwise follow the Events section to check when they open! [posts_by_checkbox_flag checkbox_flag=”Che bandi ci sono per gli/le artist*?”]

If you need low-cost equipment (such as speakers and mixers, microphones and other musical stuff) you can ask to the following associations:

So you want to have a party without making noise, huh? Why? Bolzano loves the nightlife. Or maybe not? Ok, you can rent them from:

Need a singing class, specific instrument or music workshops? Check out their pages:

Music
Arts
If you need a place to make your art, there are several places to ask. Try contacting these: [posts_by_checkbox_flag checkbox_flag=”Dove trovo un atelier?”]

Here is hard to give you a precise answer because so many people are organising workshops and art classes. Click around here, you will surely find something!

[posts_by_checkbox_flag checkbox_flag=”Chi fa i corsi/workshop?”]

Both physical tools and support for creative people. These are the entities that can help you out with your ideas or if you need like a hammer or a 3D printer or laser cutting, here you go…

[posts_by_checkbox_flag checkbox_flag=”Dove trovo strumenti per realizzare progetti creativi?”]

There are several entities offering art calls. Some even support you with a little money. Among them surely Weigh Station, Bando Generazioni and Strike. However, take a look at Stiftung Fondazione Sparkasse because they also give some money if they really like your project. You can also pitch your project to the Province and the Cultural Department, but you have to apply for a funding with a different procedure.

[posts_by_checkbox_flag checkbox_flag=”Chi fa bandi artistici?”]

You want to exhibit your work? You can ask for a shelter to different local entities. In DrinBZ we always look forward to exhibit the art of young artists. However, there are also other places that we recommend, such as:

[posts_by_checkbox_flag checkbox_flag=”Dove posso fare una mostra?”]

If you need a space to organise a workshop, you can always ask in DrinBZ. But we don’t want to only feather our own nest, so try asking the following entities as well. The Weigh Station organises loads of them, but also contact the TreviLab or CoolTour. They will surely be able to help you. Also the PIPPO.Food.Chill.Stage has organised some workshops!

Provincial and municipal offices can support you, but they have no spaces to offer.

[posts_by_checkbox_flag checkbox_flag=”Dove posso posso organizzare un workshop?”]

Ahhh, you want to organise some stuff like a tournament or a sporting event or similar? Provincial and municipal offices can help you out. If you are a student contact SCUB!

[posts_by_checkbox_flag checkbox_flag=”Chi contattare per un progetto sportivo?”]

You have a class but you lack the gym? Try with the Fondazione UPAD. If you want to make a small association instead, you can count on SSV Bozen.

It may seem like slamming, but both handle much of the bureaucracy.

[posts_by_checkbox_flag checkbox_flag=”Chi affitta palestre?”]

Are you a student? SCUB organises sports classes.

You just started working? Have a look at Fondazione UPAD, USSA, UISP

[posts_by_checkbox_flag checkbox_flag=”Chi offre corsi sportivi?”]

Which sport? Tough question, we try to update the answer to this question. Meanwhile have a look here:

[posts_by_checkbox_flag checkbox_flag=”Dove trovo persone con cui allenarmi nel mio sport?”]

Sports
Theatre & Cinema

If you are not an expert and you want to start a theatre class, you can ask them. Surely there is someone else who also offers theatre courses, so we’ll update this answer as soon as possible.

[posts_by_checkbox_flag checkbox_flag=”Dove trovo un corso di teatro?”]

There are several theatre collectives, we will try to update them as we go along. In the meantime, we recommend the following: 

[posts_by_checkbox_flag checkbox_flag=”Quali sono i collettivi teatrali?”]

These are not calls, but those who organise them. You can try to propose your shorts/movies to Bando Generazioni, but also WS Call. If you want to do it in a very short time there is BZ48h from Cooperativa 19! [posts_by_checkbox_flag checkbox_flag=”Quali bandi cinematografici ci sono?”]

If you need a room to rehearse, you can try to get in touch with them. They tend not to be free, but they should not cost too much either. If you join BeYoung, however, the Saletta becomes free!

[posts_by_checkbox_flag checkbox_flag=”Dove trovo una sala prove?”]

More or less the answer is similar to the film calls. Try Weigh Station’s WS Call, the Generazioni call or FUTURA. Alternatively, click below. [posts_by_checkbox_flag checkbox_flag=”Che bandi teatrali ci sono?”]

If you need to organise a small screening, you can always ask in DrinBZ. Alternatively there are nicer and bigger places where you can ask. Try contacting these below.

[posts_by_checkbox_flag checkbox_flag=”Dove posso organizzare una proiezione?”]

If you need a funding contribution, you can ask the Cultural Office of the Province or the City Council.

If you want to try your luck with a call just to get started, try the Bando Generazioni of Young Inside, the WS Call of Weigh Station, telling your story with the call of Strike or directly contact the associations/entities here below!

[posts_by_checkbox_flag checkbox_flag=”Dove trovo soldi per il mio progetto?”]

If you are here and haven’t understood yet that you can come to DRIN in Corso Italia, 34, there is a problem. If you dislike us you can go to the various libraries in the city or unibz (but it closes often). If you need a coworking you can go to Startbase, but it is fee-based. Otherwise the NOI.Techpark has also a coworking/studio area.

[posts_by_checkbox_flag checkbox_flag=”Dove posso andare a lavorare come freelancer?”]

Here are some entities that will definitely help you figure it out if you have VAT. Weigh Station organises always trainings on this topic. Have a look!

[posts_by_checkbox_flag checkbox_flag=”A chi mi rivolgo se ho dei dubbi sulla p. iva ecc.?”]

Look at the following entities. There are many calls that can give you some money to start your business as a professional.

[posts_by_checkbox_flag checkbox_flag=”Dove trovo bandi per professionist*?”]

Business

Free time

You like the mountains, huh? You don’t want to go there alone, don’t you? Try signing up for the C.A.I. that organise a lot of excursions. If you like to experience the mountains in a special way, on the other hand, BeYoung always organises trips that are different from the usual!

[posts_by_checkbox_flag checkbox_flag=”Chi organizza gite in montagna?”]

It would be easier to tell you which one you can’t volunteer in. It depends on what you want to do. If you want to volunteer with very young people, you can try laic scouting C.N.G.E.I. or A.G.E.S.C.I. the catholic one, or VKE. Alternatively, youth centers are always looking for operators! The other proposals are more cultural. Have a look! [posts_by_checkbox_flag checkbox_flag=”In quale associazione posso fare volontariato giovanile?”]

[posts_by_checkbox_flag checkbox_flag=”In quale associazione posso fare volontariato sociale?“]

[posts_by_checkbox_flag checkbox_flag=”In quale associazione posso fare volontariato linguistico?”]

If you want to talk about mental health informally, we recommend the Biblioteca Open Mind. Alternatively look at the projects of the following entities:

[posts_by_checkbox_flag checkbox_flag=”Chi tratta di salute mentale?”]

[posts_by_checkbox_flag checkbox_flag=”Chi si occupa di temi LGBTQ+?”]
[posts_by_checkbox_flag checkbox_flag=”Chi si occupa di sostenibilità?”]

These calls and entities can help you develop your projects related to Health and Wellness. Check it out!

Nerd

We don’t want to put store pages on this site, but take a look at these Bolzano entities and collectives:

[posts_by_checkbox_flag checkbox_flag=”Dove posso giocare di ruolo?”]

Want a nerd festival in Bolzano? Check out Game Ground or Festival dei Sogni e del Fumetto.

There are different collectives that organise events, such as The Nherd o Dung.

Want to find out who organises Nerd events? Check the profiles of BeYoung, CoolTour e Bunker H. 

Even at DrinBZ we organise nerd events from time to time.

[posts_by_checkbox_flag checkbox_flag=”Chi organizza eventi per nerd?”]

Every Wednesday night a group of friends get together to nerd hard at DrinBZ, but also BeYoung has spaces to nerd with your friends in their magical “La Saletta.”

If you are looking for less private places, check out Time Twister Games o La Fenice. They always organise events and have spaces to play.
