Dortmund has a rich nightlife and hundreds of cafes. The biggest concentration is around the main shopping area (Westenhellweg, Kleppingstrasse and Alter Markt).
The small Westpark is where the young and beautiful hang out on sunny afternoons, either playing footy, barbecuing or sitting in the biergarten.
Follow Lindemannstrasse all the way to the stadium, and I'm sure you'll stop off at one of the pubs and bars along the way. Find out about clubs and events in the free magazine 'coolibri', available in most cafes.
Westpark is next to Möllerbrücke at the northern end of Lindemannstrasse. A 15 min walk from town or take underground line U42 southbound towards Hombruch.
