RAUM FOR ONE MORE? SPIELRAUM WEEKENDER RETURNS

words by VERONICA TLAPANCO SZABÓ

Darker skies and frosted windows only mean one thing, turning up the heat indoors. So before the year slips into hibernation mode, club RAUM is giving you one extra, extra steamy weekender to melt the final month away. On the weekend of the 13 & 14th of December, the beloved SPIELRAUM returns for a glorious farewell to the year. They say “go out with a bang” and that’s precisely what we plan to do. From midnight on Saturday the speakers will be ignited, doors will be swinging open at 23:00 and the dance floor won’t shut down until Monday morning. The RAUMathon awaits!

If you've ever wondered whether you have the stamina to endure, now's your chance to find out. Downstairs in the Expo you’ll dive into deeper, layered techno and progressive sounds and upstairs in the Studio, textures of house and its many subgenres will wrap around you. This is who will soundtrack your weekend, Saturday: Berkan V8, Ellen Allien, Handmade, Julia Maria and ketia. As for Sunday: Amaliah, Altinbas, DJ Red, Fio Fa, Gabrielle, Human Space Machine, Loradeniz and Luigi di Venere.

At its heart, Club RAUM is more than just bricks and beats, it’s also a queer-run cultural space where community, expression, and freedom come together in smoke, shadows, and sound. SPIELRAUM in all its marathoning captures that spirit completely, here, community is not an accessory to the night but the very reason it exists. So gather your people and maybe a pair of earplugs (safety first) and grab your tickets here. See you under the strobe lights.
