Bootshaus Cologne announces action-packed Autumn and Winter events schedule

Events including Meduza, Above & Beyond, Unreal WKND, elrow, Nibirii w. Oguz, Kevin de Fries, Kölsch, Blacklist Festival and more

Germany’s world-renowned Bootshaus is gearing up for a typically fiery Autumn/Winter season packed with genre-defying sounds and boundary-pushing lineups. Across multiple sounds and scenes from melodic house to techno, hardstyle, bass, dubstep and more, Bootshaus continues its legacy of delivering unmatched and uncompromising energy and cutting-edge artists in an industrial-chic setting.

Since its rebirth in 2005 after originally being founded in 1991 as Warehouse, Bootshaus has become celebrated not just as a nightclub, but as an electronic music institution. There are no VIPs, no bottle service, no posers and no nonsense but affordable tickets and a powerhouse roster of in-house brands like Loonyland, Blacklist, Unreal, and Nibirii. 

The venue consistently delivers immersive experiences that blur the lines between club night and theatrical production, all housed in a converted shipyard warehouse with three distinct spaces: the cavernous main room, the gritty BLCKBX and the intimate Dreherei, each outfitted with state-of-the-art sound systems from Funktion-One to Seeburg Audio and spectacular visual effects, including strobes, lasers, flamethrowers and more.

Highlights of the new season include 19 September with chart topping Italian house outfit Meduza and 26 and 27 September when Unreal WKND offers two back-to-back nights of relentless hard techno. 

Into October, Marten Lou (112) x Solar offer more crossover dance sounds,  two genre legends Hakke & Paul Elstak invite you to dive deep into high-impact hardstyle. On the 17th of October, Hardstyle returns with Hardbrake's high-voltage rhythms to rev up your weekend, the 18th is Nibirii featuring Oguz for a dark, atmospheric hard techno showcase featuring one of the most intriguing names in the scene. 

14th November is Chrome, a night inspired by the raw, unfiltered energy of Berghain-style techno, 15th is Wonderful Days, a throwback event revisiting acts and anthems for retro lovers.

On 5th December, global legends Above & Beyond mark a spectacular shift to melodic, euphoric techno and on 12th December, Elrow brings a crazy, immersive and colourful carnival to town then on 13th Kevin de Vries and Kölsch serve up emotive house and tech-house magic.

Bootshaus’s fearless approach has earned it unparalleled acclaim and it continues to rank among the world’s top clubs
