For months, events were only possible to a very limited extent due to the spread of the corona virus in the region. In the meantime, events such as performances and concerts are taking place again under strict conditions. However, in the event of increasing infections, it is always possible that events may be cancelled at short notice. Our weekend tips show what the weekend in Bonn and the region has to offer. These are still valid under reserve.
