 Fly BerMuDa

The grand finale at Berlin’s former Airport Tempelhof is the FLY BerMuDa event. The Airport Terminal was once the biggest building in the world and during the cold war the allies supplied from this airport West Berlin via the “Luftbrücke” with food. Closed down in 2008 the Tempelhof Airfield becomes a recreation area. The Terminal with its unique design and its huge hangar gives shelter to major events like the Berlin Festival or the Berlin Fashion Week and in November Fly Bermuda a huge indoor Rave which take place in this awesome location. The Lineup is the Who is Who of German Techno artists and as you know we have a lot of them, so let’s have a look at the gigantic lineup.

Berlin Festival 2011 at Tempelhof Airport and Club X-Berg

Berlin Festival with Public Enemy, Boy Gorge and Boys Noize

On the 9th-10th of August, the Berlin Festival will once again take place at the old Tempelhof Airport. The Tempelhof Airport is an awesome location, with the main terminal providing shelter in case of a rainy day. However, we should stay positive! With such a stellar lineup, the Berlin Festival once agin gets a top position in the field of Indie Electro festivals in Europe. They still manage to keep a good mix between Hipster Indie and Freaky Berlin Stylish Electro. Hey, Whoever thought that you would see Public Enemy and Boy George on the same Festival … Interesting!!

Tempelhof Airport is situated right in the middle of Berlin, so there were some problems last year with their neighbours. This year, the festival is split into two parts. Part one is the Berlin Festival during the day at the airport. Part two is the Club X-Berg Festival at the Berlin Arena in Kreuzberg. The Berlin Arena is well known for housing big events, so we can expect a huge non-stop party!
