As the sun begins to shine brighter and the warm days of summer approach, the excitement in Frankfurt is palpable. The Gibson Beach Club, a vibrant new addition to the city’s social scene, is set to open its doors for a second season on May 4, 2026. Located at Mainzer Landstraße 23, nestled between the Deutsche Bank and Platz der Republik, this beach club covers an impressive area of approximately 6,800 square meters, making it double the size of its predecessor at Opernplatz.
Managed by Bastian Bernhagen, the Gibson Beach Club offers a unique blend of relaxation, activity, and culinary delights. Visitors can enjoy comfortable lounge chairs, delightful bars, and the infectious beats of live music, all while soaking up the sun in a temporary beach setting. The club’s mission is to provide an experience that encompasses leisure, enjoyment, and activity, with a variety of flexible formats and events tailored to different tastes and preferences.
Exciting Offerings and Events
This year, the Gibson Beach Club is expanding its culinary offerings with a brand-new 320 square meter Food Court featuring a tantalizing array of treats. Guests can indulge in refreshing smoothies, aromatic coffee, and delicious street food including Pinsa, hot dogs, and rotating lunch specials. There are also vegetarian and vegan options to cater to every palate. The Food Court is designed to highlight the culinary diversity that Frankfurt has to offer, ensuring there’s something for everyone.
To kick off the season, the club is hosting an exciting launch event on April 30, 2026, themed “Rosé All Day.” As part of their offerings, the club also features two unique paddle courts, the only ones of their kind in downtown Frankfurt, which can be used independently from the beach club. Paddle enthusiasts can book these courts via an app, with prices starting at 44 euros per hour. And for those looking to freshen up after a game or a day in the sun, complimentary showers are available on-site.
Opening Hours and Admission
The Gibson Beach Club will be open from Monday to Friday between 12:00 PM and 3:00 PM, and again from 5:00 PM until late. On weekends and holidays, the club opens its doors at noon. Admission is 5 euros after 6:00 PM, and the atmosphere is pet-friendly, making it a great spot for dog lovers to enjoy a day out with their furry friends.
With plans to operate until September 2026, the Gibson Beach Club is not just a place for sunbathing and paddle tennis; it also aims to host various sports formats and corporate events. The club is managed by Gibson Club and backed by Tite Street Capital, a London-based investor. It’s a perfect spot for anyone looking to enjoy the summer vibes in the heart of Frankfurt.
