Girlsdays in Gelsenkirchen: Active fun for girls in the Ückendorf neighborhood

Girlsdays at the Ückendorf Play and Adventure Playground: a strong afternoon just for girls

The Girlsdays bring fresh energy to the municipal construction and adventure playground Ückendorf on June 12, 2026. Girls from Ückendorf will experience a protected space full of play, creativity, community, and empowerment – free of charge, without registration, and with food and beverages available on site.

Quality time with play and creativity

For families from the neighborhood, this date offers a true vacation feeling amidst everyday life: Each edition of the Girlsdays has its own theme, this time focused on movement. Children who already attend school will find open offerings that create space for laughter, experimentation, and small successes.

Child-friendly, safe, and development-focused

The playground operates with a clear family-friendly approach. The municipal provider describes the location as an open meeting place for schoolchildren aged 6 to 14 years, with creative and nature education offerings. This is exactly what makes the framework for the Girlsdays so valuable: age-appropriate, strength-oriented, and with a protected setting for community activities.

A place to discover and feel good

The playground at Bochumer Straße 214 offers plenty of space for movement, creative areas, garden sections, and joint activities. This creates a lively place for families where children are not just occupied but actively participate, create, and gather new experiences. This strengthens self-confidence, social skills, and joy in togetherness.

What families should know in advance

Participation is free of charge. Registration is not required. The offering is aimed at girls who are already attending school. Food and beverages are provided. The event takes place monthly, except in May, and will run from 3 PM to 7 PM on this date.

Conclusion: The Girlsdays combine safe supervision, creative community, and lots of children's laughter into a special family experience in the Ückendorf neighborhood. Anyone looking for an open, empowering, and child-friendly afternoon should experience this event live.
