Originally posted by Dwingo Fuck other cities. The LoveParade can't be held in an other city then Berlin. The LoveParade IS Berlin and Berlin IS the LoveParade. It has got to do with several things, like re-united people (Berlin because of the separated families and people during the Cold War) and being free and able to express yourself in ways you want to. Another aspect is the diversity of cultures able to party together. Last year rumours were that the LoveParade had to move to Paris too, but finally it was still held in Berlin. Let's hope this will happen this year too. By the way: The amazing amount of people you refered to, are about 1.5 milion people (not kidding !!! ). The LoveParade started 8 years ago (I think! ) with only 1 truck and 500 visitors. I think they can expect 2 milion people this year. Let's hope there will be a BERLIN LoveParade.

Ah, I see. Sorry, I didn't know there was something that deep to LoveParade

i'm always up to learn more about trance events. thanks for the history lesson.

that raises another question in my mind...if the loveparade has done so much...why would you cancel it?? that's fucking stupid.

eventually the love parae would have to be shut down,evenn last year authorities were upset over the amount of drugs present at this event and were expected to change things a bit ,but i wasn't really expecting anything to happen of it! oh well at least I got a chance to go while it was still on

anyway ,don't change your travel plans people there are still other great festivals my personal fav the street parade in Zurich,austria ...it's smaller but I like the crowd so much more,also if your willing to cross multiple borders in a day trance energy happens later that night in Norway????? maybe someone wants to check that but i've never been,so I haven't the info for it ,sorry! just change your plans to august and I can assure you you'll have a great time anyway

i dont get it?
Why demonstrate against something that only brings love and unity among people? why do they demonstrate at all?

unfortunately...it's the narcotics that they're worried about. which is fucking retarded considering how much people use at ALL raves. i dunno. demonstrators will always have their reasons.

How can the biggest rave in the world be cancelled ?!!!!!!!!?!?!?!?!?!?!? Imposible!!!!!! how can they forget that the Love Parade united the people after the berlin wall ?!!?!?!?!? how can they forget that through this they forgot about the war and all annd that what united them was the MUSIC ?!!?!?!? this protesters are bullsh*t?!?! how many protestors are there?!?! there cant be more then 2 million peeps.. so if it does get cancelled, people should go on strike.. majority wins!

AMEN!

NO!NO!NO!NO!
Maybe someone already knows the reaction of Loveparade participants ( i mean musicians - Westbam, PvD, Dr. Motte, etc.)? It was a great night in 2000 nad it should be repeated!

Yeah I heard it... I sucks really..
I was also planning to go... then maybe next year.. Or maybe Rotterdam. I thought that there was party just like loverparade there. but don't know when it is. anybody does??

Doesn't this always happen a couple of months before such an event??? I am not going to worry about it, because they simply wont cancel it! Everybody understands that!!!

We're all gonna party, and whether it's the 14th, the 15th or the 21th: we'll kick some ass!!! PART-EEEEEEY
