Schamlos @ zakk

The venue itself has potential, and I was looking forward to a fun night, but my experience at the entrance completely ruined the vibe. I tried to do something nice by giving away a ticket I wasn’t going to use, and instead of handling the situation politely, the staff member at the entrance yelled at me in a way that felt totally uncalled for and unfair. I understand enforcing rules, but there’s no excuse for being rude to someone who’s clearly trying to be friendly and helpful. That is not the zakk vibe I was used to from other events. If you’re looking for a welcoming atmosphere, I’d recommend going somewhere else—because at this place, even kindness seems to be met with hostility.

Nice people, cool atmosphere, simply top

Unfortunately, I can't recommend it at all. We were at the party on December 6th, and it was completely overcrowded at Zakk. It was absolutely no fun. The cloakroom organization was awful and catastrophic. Never experienced anything like it! It took an hour to drop off clothes and then another hour to pick them up. We traveled all the way from Bochum and were extremely disappointed. Unfortunately, we've only been there once and never again! The prices on site were also completely overpriced. Gin and tonic €9, still water €3.50. It was even cheaper at the hotel bar in the Niu.

The party was way overcrowded. The organizer obviously didn't care... After all, the tickets were already paid for... Over two hours of waiting just to get rid of our coats. And all that pushing and shoving in the cramped stairwells... By the time you're sober, you're definitely not in the mood for anything else. Plus, the music was way too loud. Well, at that point, it wasn't such a big deal anymore. Unfortunately, a ruined evening that could have been spent much better. Conclusion: Shamelessly good partying, maybe again sometime. But not at Zakk...

You basically only get there to queue

Not recommended! Absolutely terrible organization. We wanted to go to the party at Zakk after Düsseldorf Pride and were greeted very rudely in the queue: "Hi, if you don't have tickets, you can go home." This was despite the website stating that there would be tickets available at the door (we arrived at 9:30 pm [the party was supposed to start at 10:00 pm]). When we bought tickets from others to get in, we encountered even more poor organization. For example, there were only two toilet cubicles for women, and there was a bar right at the entrance to the dance floor, leading to large crowds and making it difficult to move around. This was exacerbated by the fact that the organizers had also placed a foosball table there, which you then had to jostle your way around. None of us could understand this spatial concept. We found the music in the main dance room rather mainstream and unspectacular, but the techno area was fantastic! They had truly unparalleled fog machines and special effects. When someone in our group unfortunately got an upset stomach from a painkiller (she was fasting) and didn't want to vomit in the restroom because it was absolutely packed, we asked several staff members if we could briefly leave the party area to avoid any inconvenience. We would have liked to come back afterward, but the only response was, "Once you're out, you're out. You can't come back in." We encountered completely unempathetic behavior and told the staff at the entrance that we were disappointed by the disinterest shown by employees at a QUEER (!!) event. The response was, "We don't care." The conclusion of our visit to Zakk yesterday: This was not a party that stands for openness, tolerance, and solidarity. For us, it was an absolutely paradoxical experience, and we were truly disappointed!

Nice party, but terrible organization. We waited almost an hour at the cloakroom to drop off our coats.

Cool club, great party. It was a wonderful night. I'd love to come again.
