About Café Karussell
- Organization/
Counseling - Men only, 50+
Café Karussell in Frankfurt serves as a welcoming open meeting spot for gay men aged 50 and above, fostering a cozy and supportive atmosphere. It provides a safe space where older gay men, along with friends and acquaintances, can connect without fear of rejection. Younger gay individuals are also warmly invited to join.
The offerings include coffee, cake, and beverages to kick off relaxed conversations. Regular themed events deliver practical insights on services for seniors, health planning for illness or care, nutrition, wellness, and sexuality in later life. Cultural programs feature musical performances, karaoke, readings, photo presentations on Frankfurt and distant lands, personal biographies, and drag shows, ensuring variety and engagement. A dedicated discussion group has emerged from these gatherings, open to those interested in ongoing involvement.
Housed in the Switchboard as a collaboration of queer organizations, Café Karussell embodies the spirit of 'bringing the world into the senior club,' creating a vibrant hub for connection, learning, and entertainment.
