The CLUB STAGE is located within the nightclub space on the ground floor of the Deutsches Museum. Over the two days of program, the stage will feature a variety of different setups. Access to the stage is via a revolving door. Please note that there are two steps leading into the main area. For barrier-free access, we recommend contacting the festival crew in advance. As the venue is a nightclub, lighting conditions will be accordingly low and atmospheric. For certain sessions, the club layout may be rearranged. If you need any assistance, our staff will be happy to help.
