What it is
The venue is run by a group of curators, artists, administrators, and technicians, with support from a nonprofit association. [1]
Practical
Entry, doors, and booking rules vary by event. Visitors should use the event page. The venue has no daily schedule. [1]
One listed 2026 event opened doors at 20:00, started concerts at 20:30, and sold tickets only at the door for EUR 10. [1]
The rough cost for a general visit is EUR 10 for that event example, while the price for other events is UNVERIFIED as of the price check on 2026-08-02. [1][2]
Times and seasons
Who it suits, and when
The venue suits people looking for experimental or independent cultural work and people willing to follow a specific event format. [1][2]
Allow two to four hours for a concert, film, or performance, with longer stays for workshops or multi-part programmes; this is a planning estimate. [1]
The venue's policy requires at least 50 percent or more FLINTA involvement for internal and external events, so event fit depends on the programme and audience. [1]
What is not obvious
The official venue policy gives workshops, residencies, rehearsals, and recordings the same status as public events. [1]
History
ausland opened in December 2002 in the basement of a former squatted house project called Lychi 60. [1][2]
The current venue was started by a group. No single named founder is given. Its present nonprofit support structure is described on the official About page. [1]
The official pages do not document a closure, fire, or ownership change for the venue. Such incidents are UNVERIFIED. [1]
