Copenhagen Distortion is Scandinavia's leading nightlife festival. This five-day festival offers 88 dance floors, including four huge block parties at different locations (warehouses, museums, sport halls, bridges, old breweries). Every day the festival is held in a different neighbourhood in Copenhagen, so Distortion moves through the different city districts, celebrating the city of Copenhagen.
The festival program is as eclectic as it gets - from formal dinner party events under a bridge, to skateboard contests through fire loops, jazz concerts and of course classic techno raves. The Distortion block parties take place in the streets, for free, while the sun sets, and the Distortion Club Clash program takes place during the night in spectacular Copenhagen locations, with overwhelming line-ups. A few names from the line-up: Simian Mobile Disco, Booka Shade, Kode 9, Len Faki, Gus Gus, the locals Who made Who and many other experimental-music-orientated artists.
Distortion was once an underground movement, but now, with their 10th anniversary, the festival has more than 40.000 visitors. "We make room for everyone - at least anyone who is good at having fun," says Distortion's Chef Orchestre and founder, Thomas Fleurquin. "Rock types, techno types, hip-hop types, hipster types, whatever types... we don't care where people come from, as long as they have balls and energy".
