Location
The festival premises are conveniently situated near Warschauer Straße right in the heart of alternative culture Berlin. They provide the perfect ambiance for a festival meant to be a little more than a music festival: a former train reparation plant where empty and ruinous factory halls emerged to one of Berlin’s most important places for underground culture. But only some of the innumerous buildings spread all over the humongous area have been given a new purpose keeping the decaying industrial look alive. One of the halls has become Berlins biggest skating facility, a former bomb shelter has been converted to a climbing tower and old offices are now artist’s workrooms. During the summer season people come together in the yard to enjoy the unique atmosphere while drinking a beer in the beer garden or watching a film in the open-air cinema.
But most importantly people come to this area because of the music that is presented in the various clubs be it live concerts or club music.
