Highlights
The club culture has a special status in Berlin and is certainly unique in this form worldwide. The fall of the wall favored the creation of these places. Many new open spaces in the middle of Berlin made it possible to experiment without high fixed costs.
These places have an important cultural function. They create safe spaces for their visitors, are constantly changing and maintain a close relationship with the art scene. There is even an influence on urban development, for example with the project on the Holzmarkt.
And politics is slowly discovering that, in addition to the cultural factors, the clubs are also an immense economic factor in the city, with a turnover of around 1.5 billion euros a year.
We want to go on a search for clues and see why the club scene is so important for the city and how it can be protected in the future.
Itinerary
Rummels Bucht(Pass by)
Admission Ticket FreeThe tour goes past various nightlife locations. We don't go anywhere, and out of respect for the places we don't stop in front of them. The Rummelsbucht is affected by the displacement of the entire area. We want to look at how gentrification and the construction of an aquarium are displacing the local subculture.Urban Spree Gallery
20 minsAdmission Ticket Not IncludedThe Urban Spree Gallery is located on the RAW site. Different uses in the nightlife and cultural kind make the place special. But even here strong change threatens to destroy the spirit.Berghain
20 minsAdmission Ticket Not IncludedWe'll walk past Berghain with a little bit of space and take a look at what is probably the most famous place in Berlin's nightlife to see how closely the art scene is interwoven with club culture. Numerous exhibitions and collaborations with, for example, the Berlin State Ballet illustrate why clubs are much more than pure hedonism.Holzmarkt 25
20 minsAdmission Ticket FreeThe Holzmarkt emerged from the night life and is an outstanding example of alternative urban development. After the tour, we can end the evening here with a drink.
