Rave Against the Dark. Wenn Basslines zu Gebeten und Dancefloors zu Freiheitsräumen werden: Dieses Event zelebriert die ungebrochene Kraft der ukrainischen Subkultur als Widerstand, Trost und radikale Lebensform – ein vibrierendes Statement gegen Ohnmacht und Unterdrückung, mitten im Takt der Geschichte
FORMAT: HYBRID FESTIVAL
ENTRY: tickets at the doors (12–17€)
The intertwining of rave and alternative culture is an important cultural phenomenon, which has outburst with new force in Ukraine since 2014 as a form of resistance to a tough political reality, and continues as a wartime resilience method.
The event is showcasing these quirky coping strategies as a synthesis of action deeply rooted in the Ukrainian historical context
Event is dedicated to everyone who has ever prayed for peace in the dark of night; to every defender hearing bombs at this very moment; to every muffled scream for help; and to the communities that exist — and thus resist — the oppressor who holds us in a chokehold.
