Last Screening in 2023
We're firing up the projectors one last time before we lie headfirst under the Christmas tree. On Friday, December 22nd, Solo Sunny will give us another little boost before we all abandon ourselves to the cookies and the peace of the contemplative New Year. As always with a supporting program and 35mm, this time from the DEFA Foundation.
Happy Birthday Christoph!
Today Christoph Schlingensief would have turned 63. One becomes melancholy and wonders why it always hits the best first. But that would not be in his sense, we tear down next Monday the Blue Salon -probably rather in his sense-and celebrate, scream and jolen with the GERMAN CHAINSAW MASSACRE!
Trailer Winter-Program
Our shrewd chairman of the board, who is privately very interested in video in addition to his committee work and has even set up a real video editing room in his basement, locked himself in there over the weekend and fabricated this great trailer, which makes great desire, even us, for the program in the winter semester!
Here's the new Winter Term Program!
With a good bottle of wine as that became a habit we thought about what could fit in the fall and winter, cinematically speaking. The pondering came to an end, ans so came the wine bottle. We now hold in our hands a very nice program, with elegant density, spicy finish and, as always, the classic tingling cinema pleasure.

Open Air Cinema 2023
Get out the picnic blanket, it's open air cinema again! And once again we are ahead of the game and get the award for the first open air cinema of the year in Karlsruhe in advance. On two weekends in June we will show films, each representing one genre of science fiction film history: Utopia, Dystopia and last but not least: Comedy! We are looking forward to you.
Program Summer Term 2023
After a long renovation break, the Blaue Salon opens its freshly painted doors again for the summer semester. From April to July, we always show a short pre-film on the last Monday of the month (mnemonic: Le-Mo-De-Mo), as well as a feature film in analog 16mm film projection.
A New Control Room
Read moreThe control room of the Blue Salon has finally been renovated! After many applications, a lot of planning work, building inspections and approvals, we can say: the stress was worth it, this is how you can work!
Construction at Blauer Salon
Read moreThe cinema is being rebuilt. In 2017, the order went out to the building construction office, and now, about 5 years later, something is happening. We are happy! The control room is being enlarged, new projection windows, new ventilation, new sound system. The building construction office is working hard and we can only wait and see when it can go on again.
