Description

://about blank is a night club in Berlin that has been running since 2010. Like many other clubs in the city, it was established in the bones of an old and out-of-use building (in this case, a former Deutsche Demokratische Republik kindergarten), and hosts primarily house and techno artists for its music. It has an extensive outdoor space with a lush garden that has become a staple for queer partying and cruising. While not an explicitly queer establishment, it has a place in Berlin’s queer party culture and has been known to host queer events and parties put on by community organizations and collectives.
