On Friday, 5 December 2025, Peter-Weiß-Haus was transformed into a place of celebration and diversity: 
Over 300 international students, researchers and staff from the University of Rostock came together for the traditional International X-Mas Party – hosted by the International Office and the Erasmus Student Network (ESN) LEI Rostock.

The evening offered a colourful programme that left nothing to be desired: a diverse cultural programme with musical contributions from international students and group games that ensured lively exchanges and an enthusiastic atmosphere. The team of Peter-Weiß-Haus spoiled us with a varied buffet. The crowning finale was the intercultural disco, where international beats got everyone dancing and the stress of the semester was forgotten for an evening.

A big thank you to everyone who made this evening possible – especially to you, who made the celebration so special with your energy and joy!
