Berghain 

Berghain is not only one of Berlin’s most famous nightclubs but also an LGBTQ+ institution.

Originally a trendy homosexual club, Berlin’s Berghain has developed into one of the world’s most iconic techno clubs over the past twelve years. People who get past the world’s toughest bouncers are plunged into an unforgettable darkness of colourful characters and sweaty techno raves, and will only be spat out again once the morning light is high in the sky.

The former power plant located between Kreuzberg and Friedrichshain (hence the name) was almost completely gutted so that it could be used as a techno club, and now boasts four storeys of space for the club room itself as well as several bars, darkrooms, unisex toilets and a panorama prevent on the foremost floor. Exposed, grey reinforced concrete, reliable iron stairways and darkened windows produce the setting for the city’s hottest parties.

 

And since August 2015, BauBuche has been a part of Berghain too. The occasion was the three-day “Pop-Kultur” festival, which attracted over 10,000 people with its concerts, DJ sets, lectures and panel discussions. Berghain presented the ideal location for the festival – the only thing missing was practical and variable seating. But the event organiser Musicboard

What is Berghain and why is it so famous?

Is it hard to get into?

Yes and no. While there are no clear rules on how to get into Berghain, you should think about a few things before you join the sometimes enormous queue. 

The biggest thing? Offer respect and consideration to Berghain’s culture and original intent: to provide a safe space for queer people to celebrate and indulge. If you’re there simply because it’s ‘cool’, to stare, or simply to tell your friends back home that you ‘got in’, you not only are less likely to be allowed entry, but you probably shouldn’t go in at all.
