1st of May.

The Night Will Glow.

1st of May weekend. The city will fill up with demonstrations, cops, open airs and parties. I am sure that things will happen.

This year the 1st of May ends up on a Saturday. For the working person this is not ideal. There goes another holiday without giving us a day off. But for everybody this means that a lot of things will happen at the same time. You can either go activist and spend you weekend protesting and supporting different causes or you go "Be The Weekend" and go all out party. Wonder which one I'm gonna choose.

Tonight is the windup for Saturday. For example Ritter Butzke has a long line up to get the crowds going. Golden gate also has something to offer. Then the party in Brunnenstraße 70 looks like it will take off. But the real show starts tomorrow. For example, I overheard a club owner yesterday saying "Saturday? first of May? All bets are off. It's gonna get crazy." Hmm maybe that not to strange to hear from a club owner but it really looked and sounded like he meant it.

Not only is the city gonna fill up with demonstrations, (and most likely fights with the police) but there are open airs in many of the parks and clubs are organizing more and more outside areas next to their locations. Talking to the Fulast guys the plan seems to be to hit up a open air and then go to Berghain, it being the opening party for their garden and almost all their resident DJs are playing. Bar 25 are also having their official opening this Saturday. But that is just a few things, the one that looks will find parties in crazy places this weekend.

It's gonna be a good one so make the best of it and try to just Be The Weekend!
