MQ SommerÖffnung-quartier21 Program
LEISURE & OUTDOOR, ART


Date: May 08.
AQUADROME
Fast boats, a challenging course, and an opponent hot on your heels (the shark). The reflecting pool at the MQ becomes a liquid arena where fans can maneuver remote-controlled boats through a maze of buoys in a race against time. You can rent a boat or bring your own. Either way, we guarantee lots of fun and excitement for kids and adults.
Rent a boat for €5 for ten minutes. Use the boat pond for free if you bring your own.
The AQUADROME can also be rented for exclusive use from Mon to Fri.
