When the city train becomes a conversation space

On Monday, June 22, 2026, Line 2 in Bielefeld will transform into a mobile space for encounters, exchange, and new perspectives. Get On. Make Excuses. The Line Talk brings people in their everyday lives together for conversation and sends a strong message for solidarity.

Encounter in the midst of passenger flow

The action utilizes the dynamics of public transport in a special way: Open conversation areas, volunteer guides, and spontaneous impulses make the ride an unusual event experience. Instead of distance, closeness is created; instead of fast passage, a space for genuine attention.

Jahnplatz as a lively meeting point

Even before departure, the event starts at Jahnplatz. There, an open meeting point with seating and the photo project In Between awaits in front of the service center. The square in the heart of Bielefeld thus becomes a visible stage for an action that brings social issues directly into everyday life.

Organization with a social mission

The format is backed by the Coordination Center for Encounter and Solidarity together with moBiel. The goal is to raise awareness about loneliness, promote low-threshold encounters, and explore new ways of togetherness in public transport. The result: a well-thought-out event format with a stance that focuses on genuine participation.

Schedule and atmosphere

The open meeting point at Jahnplatz runs from 4:30 PM to 7:15 PM. Meanwhile, the encounter rides of Line 2 travel between Sieker and Altenhagen. Volunteer guides accompany the route, provide conversation prompts, and offer assistance if needed. This creates a calm, welcoming audience atmosphere that is rarely found in everyday life.

Conclusion: An evening that connects

The Line Talk is not a classic stage format, but a municipal encounter experience with direct added value. Those who want to experience Bielefeld from a new perspective will find conversations, community, and a consciously open interaction here. It's best to come by live and experience the special atmosphere for yourself.
