Evil And Dangerous

What Evil And Dangerous does

Evil And Dangerous, legally Uebel & Gefährlich GmbH (HRB 96067, Hamburg), is a privately held Hamburg-based nightclub and live-event venue operating from a historic WWII bunker beneath the Heiligengeistfeld. The venue runs two distinct physical spaces: the Saal (the main hall, used primarily for concerts and club nights) and the Turmzimmer (the tower room, used for smaller-format events and readings). The company programs 100+ events annually spanning concerts, club nights, literary readings, and ScienceSlam competitions, serving individual ticket-buying consumers in Hamburg and visiting attendees from the broader German live-events market.

The underlying technology stack is operationally focused rather than differentiated: a proprietary ticket shop built on tickettoaster, supplemented by third-party distribution across Xceed.me, dice.fm, Eventim, and Reservix, with on-site box office sales. The site exposes an iCal API for calendar export of the event schedule, supports social login via Facebook and Google, and uses Google Analytics for traffic measurement. Customer-facing marketing is delivered through Facebook, Instagram, and a Mailchimp newsletter.

The business model combines four revenue streams: ticket sales (distributed across the venue's own shop plus multiple third-party platforms), on-site bar revenue, merchandise, and venue rental. Management is handled by René Dachner and Nick Waller under the GmbH structure. The company is privately held, has no disclosed parent, no public funding history, and is operationally active with events programmed into 2027. No AI, ML, or data-driven product capabilities are disclosed.
