Lineup

The Berghain is located in a district heating plant from 1953, which the operators bought themselves in 2010. There are 18 meters of air above the dance floor, the sound is provided by four Funktion-One towers, and upstairs in the Panorama Bar, house plays instead of techno. Among Berlin's techno clubs, this one has the toughest door, as cameras are taped over and there are no mirrors.

The Weekend Club at Alexanderplatz concentrates on Hip Hop, R'n'B and Latin Events.

Lollapalooza Berlin is the ultimate summer event in the city: for two days, the Olympic Park in West Berlin transforms into a massive stage for world-class acts, fashion, sustainability, and great food. If you want to experience Berlin's summer in its loudest, most colorful form, you absolutely have to check it out.

High above the rooftops of Mitte, the Weekend Club sits on the 15th floor of the former Haus des Reisens building, directly on Alexanderplatz. Those who party here do so with an unobstructed view of the TV Tower, a 37-meter long bar, and a guest list that ranges from Karl Lagerfeld to George Clooney.

Berghain in Friedrichshain is Berlin's most famous celebrity club and a legend of the global techno scene. Those who get in will encounter celebrities, resident DJs, and a superlative sound system. The queue outside is almost as famous as the club itself.

The Lokschuppen was called Suicide Circus from 1994 to 2024 and has been located on the RAW Gelände since 2009, with the entrance via Warschauer Brücke. There is an indoor floor and an open-air area, and collectives like Formula 90 and GabberIndustries curate the program. Among Berlin's techno clubs, this one offers the most affordable nights.

Tresor opened in 1991 in the vault of the Wertheim department store and has been operating since 2007 in the disused power plant on Köpenicker Straße, complete with built-in original lockers. A thirty-meter tunnel leads into the Vault, while House music plays in the Globus. Of all techno clubs in Berlin, this one has the longest Detroit connection.
