It started as a radio show and is now an internationally recognized brand in electronic music: BigCityBeats turns 15! And that's when you're allowed to congratulate yourself on your birthday - especially when the whole thing is celebrated in the form of a great party. At least since the brilliant WORLD CLUB DOME, BigCityBeats has always been known for big things. But it can also be smaller. Bernd Breiter (CEO and founder of BigCityBeats) reveals that on the evening of Friday, April 5, 2019, the B-Day party will not be held in a huge arena. The party will be held in - by BigCityBeats standards - a smaller but all the finer location: the Festhalle Frankfurt. The event: part of the Frankfurt Musikmesse Festival. Congratulations to: Timmy Trumpet, Alle Farben, Le Shuuk and LOVRA.
Sounds good already, doesn't it? But before the outlook on the party first a short look back. On 01.03.2004 a radio show saw the light of day: BigCityBeats was born. The first sentences became the motto: "We make your weekend better". After going on air, smaller parties followed. The first event took place at 8Grad in Heidelberg. Expected number of visitors: 400. Actual number of visitors: 80. Oops - the shot backfired. But to give up? No way! More than 1,000 people came to the second party. And today - after 131,400 hours of broadcasting - BigCityBeats events are visited by 160,000 guests on just one weekend. And the trend? Rising, of course. What a success story!
A success story that nobody believed in at the beginning. Not even Bernd Breiter himself. "Never, ever would I have dreamed that we would organize events in Korea with a team of only 14 people . that we would fly into weightlessness in cooperation with the European Space Agency ESA . that we would turn a luxury liner into a party ship and sail across the Mediterranean," says Bernd Breiter.
The question is how to celebrate such a success story, which has been dismissed as a much-ridiculed vision and a crazy, abstruse idea. Quite simple: Nothing is better suited for the celebration of the 15th anniversary than a feudal setting: the Frankfurt Festhalle - it is the mother of all Festhallen, has the certain charm and esprit, the certain extra, the certain something and the certain flair to hold such an event.
Birthday guests will be: Timmy Trumpet, who flies in especially from Australia with his trademark - the trumpet. An EDM superstar with unforgettable live performances! The quasi-resident DJ of the BigCityBeats events Le Shuuk is also part of the party. He, who once started as a no-name DJ and now always rocks the main stage of the events. Echo winner Alle Farben will also be on stage. The Berliner, who has produced groundbreaking earworms with "Please Tell Rosie", "Little Hollywood" and "Supergirl". The fourth name in the Birthday Party line-up also has the potential to become a supergirl and superstar: Lovra, who is signed to Kontor Records and is one of the absolute hot talents in the newcomer sector. 2019 will be her year. Festivals, events, club gigs. From open to close. End: open.
End: open. That doesn't apply to the BigCityBeats events. Because there's plenty more to come for the party nation in 2019. The birthday party is just the door opener of the upcoming big events. It is the official pre-party . the "Road to WORLD CLUB DOME", which will take place on 07, 08 and 09 June 2019 as usual in Frankfurt's Commerzbank Arena plus the entire swimming pool area, forest and meadow area. Also build this year again the first club of weightlessness, which celebrated its premiere flight in 2018 towards space: WCD Zero Gravity. A converted training plane - a Zero-G flight with parabolic maneuvers and 50 passengers on board: clubbers and DJs. Zero Gravity, in March 2019, sets sail in August with the BigCityBeats WORLD CLUB DOME Cruise Edition, while in autumn 2019 it's off again to what feels like the other end of the world - to BigCityBeats WORLD CLUB DOME Asia. And in Düsseldorf, the grand finale or opening for 2020 will be the Winter Edition.
But back to the birthday party: visitors will not only be treated to first-class sound and a magnificent show, but also a very special audiovisual spectacle: the premiere of the "WCD Zero Gravity" aftermovie. And, of course, Bernd Breiter won't miss the chance to take to the stage to announce the next "Breaking News" in person.
The BigCityBeats birthday party is part of the Musikmesse Festival Frankfurt - a five-day overall experience with more than 60 concerts and parties in around 30 locations as well as on the Frankfurt exhibition grounds. Tickets for the Musikmesse Festival, which takes place from 02 to 06 April 2019, cost 15 euros. Included: Discounted or in some cases even free admission to all events.
