European Club Night in Berlin

On 24th April 2009 Berlin will celebrate five years of EU enlargement – 5 years of new horizons. On this occasion the whole city will be turned into one massive event where the Department of Foreign Affairs will be in collusion with the Berlin club scene. Does that sounds suspicious to you? Well, actually it is not…
Under the patronage of Foreign Minister Dr. Frank-Walter Steinmeier, this night of clubbing will be taking place for the third time.
The first time the event took place was 2 years ago and that was on the 50th birthday of the European Union and last year was a roaring success as well.
The guests of the Club Night are able to perceive the offer in each participating club by buying only one ticket.
Approximately 30 different Berlin clubs have been announced and will house bands, DJs and live acts from all over the European Union. In 2009 more or less 10.000 visitors are expected.
Under the “Welcome to the Club” motto, the image of the EU, in a manner of speaking, is assigned to the dance floor and invites people to shake their hips to the rhythm of many sounds.
A special appeal is the fact that not only music from London and Paris is heard on Berlin turntables but you can also enjoy music from countries like Lithuania and Estonia.
Given the cost for entry to a club for the night, it should be considered value for money. For only 12 euros you can experience 100 DJs from 27 countries on different places.
Musical emphasis of this night is on the 12 countries which had entered in the last five years, due to the 50th anniversary of the biggest enlargement in the history of the EU.
The opening ceremony informs us of which countries will be involved and they are also presented during the club night.
Each country uses a different definition and interpretation of music so that this night offers a multiplicity of styles.
Especially those countries that you have never really felt connected to. They have a chance to give you an understanding of their culture and their attitude towards life by presenting their music.
Those of you who will still be in Berlin at the end of April should not hesitate to buy tickets for the 50th birthday of the enlarged EU. You will enjoy a mixture of cultures and if you find a nice Unterkunft Berlin or stay with your friends in a Ferienwohnung in Berlin, it will be definitely worth your while to add the club night to your itinerary in Berlin.
