About Blank

Clubbing
Nr. 001 · Friedrichshain, Treptow

Just like the Berghain, About Blank has a ban on taking pictures and has a ‘no mirrors’ policy. And just like at its big brother, there is usually a long queue to get in.

But this hidden club, located in a run-down building on a piece of wasteland near Ostkreuz station, is less extreme. Less gay, so no darkrooms. Also smaller and cosier. The dancefloor is narrow, you are literally face-to-face with the DJ. The atmosphere is extremely relaxed, this is a place for dance lovers and party hard people, who in the summer indulge in the famous day-long garden parties. And also important: it is being run as a highly political, outspoken cooperative, not focused on making huge profits. A sympathetic place.
