Community & Belonging

The Bucht der Träumer* is more than just a place for fleeting distractions in the rhythm of bass. It is a laboratory for applied togetherness and would be unimaginable without our growing community. That's why we look forward to Bucht der Träumer* 2025 under the theme - 'Community & Belonging.'

Because participation in society and culture is increasingly influenced by inflation and rising rents, it is always also a question of means. For this reason, we have made a great effort again this year to keep ticket prices as stable as possible despite many rising cost factors.

Tickets 2025

• Regular Ticket: 225 € (incl. 20€ planning contribution, plus 4.90€ pre-sale fee)
• Fördertickets: 265 € (incl. 20€ planning contribution, plus 4.90€ pre-sale fee)
• Reduzini: 125 € (plus 4.90€ pre-sale fee)
• Caravan Ticket up to 6m: 57 € (plus 2.50€ pre-sale fee)

Reduced Tickets, Supporter Tickets & Parking Tickets

We understand that people have different (financial) starting points. That's why we're once again offering our Reduzini-Tickets for people with low income (1200€ gross). You can apply now with a brief description of your situation via reduzini@bucht-der-traeumer.de.

On the other hand, you also have the option to pay more. Every Förderticket purchased helps fund the Reduzini-Tickets offer and makes the overall festival experience a little more lavish! Thank you to all our generous supporters!

Parking tickets and the very limited Caravan tickets must again be purchased online this year.

Without a parking ticket, you will not be able to park your car in the festival parking lot. The parking ticket is not a caravan ticket. Therefore, with a parking ticket, you cannot sleep in your car. The parking ticket cannot be exchanged or credited toward a caravan ticket on site.

This year, we are distinguishing between caravan tickets for caravans up to 6m and those over 6m. Cars with trailers also count as caravans over 6m.

Camping in tents is included in the regular ticket price as always.

Tickets will be available from Friday, November 1st at 6:00 PM via the following link: bucht-der-traeumer.de/tickets

Planning Contribution

Organizing festivals today comes with many risks—pandemics, landslides (both geological and political), dramatic weather disasters, just to name a few. Nevertheless, some planning costs, such as the salaries of our staff, must be covered. Therefore, all festival and Fördertickets include a planning contribution of 20€.

This contribution does not increase the ticket price but only applies in the event of an unforeseen cancellation and serves as a contingency reserve. In the very unlikely case that the festival must be canceled, we will refund the ticket price minus the planning contribution. Thank you for your understanding and trust!

Booklet 2024

Perhaps you were also wondering where this year's booklets have been. Unfortunately, the delivery took significantly longer than planned, stuck somewhere in the middle of nowhere, and only arrived with us on Monday. We're really sorry about that! If you'd like to take another look back, just follow this LINK.

P.S.: The application phase for DJs and electronic live acts is still open until November 30th, 2024!

We look forward to all who embark on the journey to us, either alone or together, to enrich our treasure map with your dreams next summer!

Your Bucht der Träumer*

The flying ship glides over a thick layer of clouds toward the autumn sun. Here and there, the mooring of the Tesla coils is checked. Tables are being shuffled, and colorful tall tales slow down the planning discussions. A contented hum from the heart of the ship fills everyone with a calm curiosity: the new season can come!

Our Bay remains in solidarity: for Mental Health and against Right-Wing Extremism

At the entrance, in the guest list queue, and through small mobile donation campaigns, we raised money for two important causes. In total, €3,719.12 was donated!

A big thank you to all donors! Solidarity is still possible, even in late capitalism!

€1,000 will go to the EXIT Germany project to support individuals who wish to leave the right-wing extremist scene. The remaining €2,719.12 will go to the Mental Rave Network for educational work on mental health and therapeutic services for the club and festival community. Thank you for your support!

We wish you a colorful start to autumn!

Until then, keep dreaming,

Your Bucht der Träumer*

With creaking planks and groaning sails, the dream ship disappears back into the clouds, its crew content and happily exhausted – of course, on course for new adventures!

Ahoi, dear Dream Travelers!

Your infectious energy, curiosity, and mindfulness made the Bucht der Träumer* 2024 an unforgettable experience. As we’re still tidying up the lines and polishing the deck to a shine, we want to extend our heartfelt thanks to you: You are incredible!

If you’d like to share your feedback, please take a few minutes to complete our mini-survey about the Bucht der Träumer* 2024.

The shores of Helenesee have vibrated with emotion over the past few days. There was an abundance of love, passion, and pure joy in the air! Yet, we also made space for those among us carrying sorrow in their hearts.

Our festival culture shows that beyond the music, there's something even more important that we want to explore: connection, belonging, and community.

Our heartfelt thanks go out to everyone who pulled together with us, taking responsibility with and for each other!

We want to especially express our gratitude to our growing community, as well as to all the newcomers! Without the constructive and respectful cooperation of guests, crews, artists, staff, and external partners, the Bucht der Träumer* would be just another festival.

We also want to thank the Helenesee team, the Frankfurt authorities, and the local residents for their patience and trust! An event of this scale must carefully balance many interests.

We are grateful that since 2017, we’ve been able to celebrate our peaceful festival in this beautiful place!

We’ll be back in the coming weeks with the opening of the application phase for electronic music acts, the photo recap, and the ticket launch for the Bucht der Träumer 2025*.

Until then, keep dreaming and stay curious!

Yours, Bucht der Träumer*

With a delicate loop, the ship approaches the runway. Not even four weeks to go until we're back between Waldtraut and Mirage. And as if that wasn't reason enough to look forward to it, we have some great news!

1. Sunday Tickets
2. Space Operations

Ahoi!

In a year in which the entire cultural scene is really struggling and some club and festival institutions have had to pant their sails, it's a huge relief for us!

All weekend tickets, from Reduzini to sponsorship tickets, are completely sold out! For all of you who were completely caught off guard: We have heard your pleas. As of today, you can still find a tiny contingent in the ticket shop:

SUNDAY TICKETS

The tickets are valid from Sunday 08 am. To park your camper or motorised soapbox, please have €10 in cash ready!

The navigation compass is happily pirouetting - the signs are pointing to a full-blown class reunion at Lake Helene!

Out of the comfort zone and back again

Space Operations brings together a multitude of clandestine discoveries, offering you room to catch your breath, meet new people, and rewire your synapses offside from the bass-heavy intensity of Atlantis or Porto Loco. This year, you can look forward to the following adventure oases, among others:

Beat em Hub

Welcome to the Beat Em Hub gaming area! Come to chill out, play games and get a blast from the past in our cozy circus tent. Dive into a world of retro and modern classic consoles and arcades, where beats meet pixels and controllers are the ultimate dance partners. Get lost in VR psychedelic wonderlands, test your smarts in our quiz show, zap zombies with light guns, twist up classic games in totally ridiculous formats, join our wacky tournaments and highscore challenges for silly epic prizes.

Cuddle Poodle

Cuddles, Comfort, Connection, and Consent

A little excursion through our humanly body parts, shrunken or enlarged, acting as vessels for snuggles, embraces, relaxation, and play. Find us and crawl into a space of playful proportions and dive into a refuge, a carcass of cheeky sensuality exploration.

Human Wash

We present you the ultimate festival shower! Dressed up in costumes made of sponges, rags, mops and soaked with water and soap, the crew from Krachgarten Kollektiv makes sure that sweat and dust have no place on your body. Here you will be soaped up and scrubbed through, rinsed with cold water and then off to the drying aisle. You’ll be washed until the rags fly!

TräumAPost

Carve your own linoleum postcard motifs with which you can print as many cards as you like - with instructions or on autopilot. You can then send your dreamer*post directly to the whole world by message in a bottle. This year you can also embellish your clothes with extraordinary patches - fancy-schmancy!

On Friday and Saturday, you'll find a wide-ranging DIY area for everyone who likes to get their hands dirty together!

Of course, this is just a small selection of the crazy spaces that await you on these days. Also included:

✯ De Loite ✯ Der KraWal ✯ Garden of the Moon ✯ Hidden Oasis ✯ Knallkörn ✯ Neuro Dive|rs ✯ Oase der Erinnerung ✯ Pearl INN ✯ RE:SORB ✯ Schweissperle ✯ Zirkus Mond ✯ Zunft zu Kra & Kuh

Until then, dream on!

Your Bucht der Träumer*

The Bucht der Träumer* 2024 is sold out! We wish everyone a wonderfully lively weekend at Helenesee!

Thanks to you, we can look forward to the coming weeks of preparation with confidence: Our ticket sales are on the home straight, almost all tickets are gone! You can still safe yourself a place on our beloved ship here:

TICKETS

BdT* Eco Team gets support from Psyclean

Sustainability has been an important concern for us since day one of the Bucht der Träumer* festival. That's why you can now find all the information on this topic on a new tab on our website.

The fact that it has been so clean on our site all these years is not only due to our considerate guests, but above all to our fantastic Eco Team! This year, they have additional support from the superheroes from the Psyclean team.

The Psyclean team is still looking for helping hands! With them you will experience a unique community experience, Psyclean-Crew-Camping with a great chillout and a ticket refund. All information and the registration form can be found here!

Live-Program 2024

Again in the second post-pandemic year, live music is still having a harder time than ever.

That's why our Bookingklabauter* have once again gone the extra mile this year to present you with a diverse and colourful live programme of bands, solo artists and multi-instrumentalists:

** We've sent out announcements to the live acts via our newsletter. If you don't have a subscription yet, but don't want to miss out next time, go this way**

Before we give you a teaser of this year's performance programme, we have some good news from the Bucht der Träumer cosmos. *

1. Crewday & Ticket-Update
2. Kids Space
3. Theater- & Performance-Teaser

Ahoi!

We're back from our Bucht der Träumer* crew day - and we're motivated as hell!

Together with everyone from the Awareness Team to the Supporta-Base to Zirkus Mond and all the crews, we made hearts beat faster, raced to shovel water, built castles in the air and took a moment to stay in silence.

At the later rave, we sealed what already had long been a foregone fact:

Together we are strong and our festival crew is in top form! They're already getting their hooves wet to serve you a Bucht der Träumer that will be sweet as candy!*

And that you folks don't have any doubts in that shows our ticket sales: 85% of the tickets, including Fördertickets and Reduzinis, are now gone.

We are heading towards being sold-out with full speed!

In a year in which things are difficult (not only) for the cultural sector and a few truly venerable festival institutions are about to fold, your trust gives us a tailwind! Thank you so much for that!

We are absolutely ready and full of anticipation for the festival season. All those who are already itching to get their feet wet can already enjoy themselves at the SKALAR Festival with some of our favourite go-getters at Helenesee from Thursday on.

Zirkus Mond & Kids Space

In cooperation with the Kinderbauernhof Pinke Panke and Zirkus Mond, there will be a colourful space especially for children (and those who are still children at heart) for the first time this year.

During the bright hours of the day, educational staff will accompany the kids at their own party. Adults will also get their money's worth. And as a daily highlight, there will also be a children's show.

You can find out all the details about our children's policy on our website!

We love drama! - Performances & theatre at the Bucht der Träumer* 2024

Glanz & Krawall: Cats of Frankfurt

When the show known as glanz&krawall watched Andrew Lloyd Webber's long-running hit Cats on VHS for the first time, they thought to themselves: That can't be all that dancing cats have to say on a stage!

The junkyard musical CATS of FRANKFURT is therefore a tribute to all the animals, big and small, who defy the neoliberal mania for order by never allowing themselves to be completely controlled.

When they break through fences, poop on freshly polished cars or turn the neatly trimmed lawn into a moonscape, they create little oases of anarchy and resistance.

A blessing for anyone who has had enough of perfectionism and meritocracy.

Zirkus Mond

The illustrious crew from Circus Moon has once again brought a gigantic circus tent on board this year.

With a gang of daring acrobats, gravity-defying aerial artists, skilful jugglers and enchanting magicians from near and far, they have signed on with us. And in their luggage they have bold humour, delicate emotions, incredible illusions and artistry that will make your jaw drop.

We are particularly pleased that for the first time there will also be a children's programme every day. Bring your kids!

Pinky Promise Cabaret

This year, we will once again be seduced by Pinky Promise's intricate realm of the senses. Come in when they invite you to their colourful, queer and seductive cabaret! Feast your eyes and lips on the magnificent show interludes that will leave your mouth hanging open.

Het Animatieteam

Can you imagine anything better than an eccentric round of disco bingo with a hedonistic plus-sized Aquaman as MC to dance away the afternoon festival fatigue? Not us!

Het Animatieteam brings Weird Culture á la Amsterdam to our beautiful Bucht der Träumer*. And the colourful Disco Bingo is just one of the crazy shows you can look forward to!

Heart Chor

In 2017, Danilo Timm founded the Heart Choir with the intention of bringing talented and enthusiastic people together to sing and perform. A thoroughly loving collective was formed, which over time became more than just a family.

The Heart Choir sings and performs out of joy, curiosity and passion. Radically spreading the message of LOVE. Body positivity, self-love and acceptance are its core values.

Erotic Poetry Odyssey

Embark on an exploration of intimacy and kinks where erotic poetry and stories intertwine with an invitation for subtle interactions.

With depth and humour, Pauline explores a variety of themes including self-love, consent, kinky fantasies, BDSM, open-love.

Revive your imagination and indulge in a creative tapestry of verses where we transcend taboos and unveil hidden fantasies!

By Pauline Loeb, Livemusic from Avi

We can hardly wait to give you even deeper insights into our live & cultural programme in the coming weeks. Stay tuned!

Until then, don't forget to dream,

Your Bucht der Träumer*

It's amazing that so many of you have already decided to join us at Helenesee in August! Most of the tickets are gone and your trust pushs us further and further! Summer already feels within reach!

However, what makes us angry, is the increasingly open right-wing violence in our country.

The right-wing extremist attacks in Dresden in recent days bring back memories of a time long past. This demands a clear response!

We will not abandon the many committed people who are fighting against racism and in favour of cultural freedom.

The motto of the Bucht der Träumer* 2024 is "Love Conquers Hate". And we don't mean that in a cheesy way, but quite seriously. Sometimes love has to hurt.

That's why we're travelling to Dresden this Saturday with some of our crew members, where the Kashay Salon will be hosting Rave against Racism and Sektor Evolution the Tolerave.

The Rave Against Racism will feature an interactive reading by the Poetry Project, a dance workshop with Tanzen 3000 and music by some of our favourite DJs ;)

Both events serve as fundraisers for the Tolerade on 31 August 2024.

If you don't know Tolerade, it's the biggest rave demonstration for tolerance and against right-wing extremism in Saxony!

Last year, we got to know the Moroccan and queer-influenced crew from Dresden's Kashay Salon, who have since taken over part of the responsibility for our sparkling Mirage Stage. Yes, exactly the stage where you can once again experience burlesque cabaret shows with Pinky Promise and hot dance nights with a particularly queer and international booking in August.

It takes courageous projects like the Kashay Salon to prove that we can think differently about the East. Glittering, solidary and tolerant.

This requires cohesion and support, which is why we are also supporting the Rave gegen Rassismus - Vielfalt Verbindet event financially. If you would like to do the same, please contact

Receiver: Smashed Candy e.V. IBAN: DE28 8605 5592 1090 2991 05 BIC: WELADE8LXXX

Verwendungszweck: freie Spende_ Vielfalt Verbinden

Those who can't make it to Dresden this weekend will have the opportunity to exchange ideas and network with actors from the Vielfalt Verbinden - Rave Gegen Rassismus network at our Neuro Dive|rs workshop space in August.

It remains the same We dance together - we fight together.

Yours Bucht der Träumer*

Your Bucht der Träumer*

Dear Dreamers*

Welcome to a new year!

The sun has passed through its valley and the days are finally getting longer again! At this point, we would like to spread unrestricted anticipation of the upcoming summer... if it weren't for this queasy feelings.

None of us has remained unimpressed by the stakkato of bad news, wars and crises that are shaking our world.

Feelings of powerlessness and existential insecurity have become a winter companion for many.

And even if we are not all directly threatened by terror, war and hunger, people from our community have lost family members and friends* or fear for their lives on a daily basis. Others are literally up to their necks in water.

The upswing currently being felt by radical right-wing forces in election forecasts does not bode well for the upcoming elections in Thuringia, Saxony and here in Brandenburg. Against this backdrop, the festival summer seems extremely far away and almost a little out of place...

Community instead of isolation!

So that we do not allow ourselves to be driven to despair despite all the bad news, it is absolutely essential that we break out of our isolation. To counter powerlessness, we need to meet physically and feel the power of our community!

Our clubs and festivals remain crucial places for this, and their continued existence would be jeopardised very definitively if the right came to power.

As organisers of the Bucht der Träumer*, we are in talks with other clubs and festivals about how we can make a meaningful contribution - and thus would also like to encourage all our friends not to bury their heads in the sand!

Training camp for radical imagination

In her book Pleasure Activism, the black American thinker and mediator adrienne maree brown appeals to our radical imagination to change our current situation:

"I believe that all organizing is science fiction - that we are shaping the future we long for and have not yet experienced. I believe that we are in an imagination battle, and almost everything about how we orient toward our bodies is shaped by fearful imaginations. Imaginations that fear Blackness, brownness, fatness, queerness, disability, difference." *

We want to counter these negative attributions with a vision in which all people and all bodies are welcome in their uniqueness and diversity.

At Bucht der Träumer*, there will once again be a rich programme of discussions, performances and workshops that will give space to the questions of our time - space to lovingly engage in difficult debates, form thoughts and find fellow companions.

And at the same time, each of us can and should allow ourselves to take a moment to breathe, enjoy music & movement and recharge our batteries for everything that is yet to come.

Until then, don't surrender! We look forward to your contribution and wish you all a bold start to the new year!

Your Bucht der Träumer*

*(Adrienne Maree Brown, Pleasure Activism)[https://www.akpress.org/pleasure-activism.html]

The old ship is moored for the winter in the heavy, creaking ice. The silence under the aurora provides peace and strength. And that's what we need to weave the concentrated inspiration of our community into a shining tapestry for the coming year!

Ahoi to the wintry parlours!

As every year, we reserve a larger contingent of tickets for our employees and collectives. Since we have received feedback that the majority of crew members have already been provided with tickets, we have decided to release the remaining tickets for open sale!

Like all festivals, we are facing significant cost pressures this year due to inflation and cannot afford to have tickets go unsold. This is now your chance to secure the last tickets at the regular price! ­ (Get your Ticket)[https://www.tixforgigs.com/Event/45823] ­ A big thank you to all those who have purchased the slightly more expensive support tickets in the meantime! These tickets subsidize our reductions and have enabled someone with a lower income to attend - thank you for the demonstrated solidarity!

SEV / Bus Shuttle Frankfurt/Oder:

Unfortunately, there is a rail replacement service (SEV) on the train route between Frankfurt/Oder. As the capacity of this service is limited, we have partnered with Bassliner.org to provide our own SEV, operating hourly between Frankfurt Oder and Helene Lake at specific times.

We urgently request that you book these rides in advance. Only by doing so can we guarantee that you will have a seat. The cost for each ride is 5€.

Please note that our bookable SEV is not funded by the public transport association. Student tickets, season passes, public transport tickets, and the Deutschlandticket are not valid for this service.

The schedule is as follows:

Thursday, 17th August: 12 PM - 10 PM Friday, 18th August: 10 AM - 10 PM Saturday, 19th August: 10 AM - 6 PM Sunday, 20th August: 10 AM - 10 PM Monday, 21st August: 10 AM - 4 PM

(Get your Ride here!)[https://bassliner.org/de)

Top up cashless credit:

The Bucht der Träumer* operates entirely cashless. Once again this year, you have the option to conveniently top up your cashless credit from the comfort of your home. Here's how:

Register in advance and transfer credit to your chip. Creating your Cashless Account is straightforward and only takes a few minutes. (You can sign up here!)[https://widget.weezevent.com/pay/410675/widgets/a1c65821-1b04-437b-975d-7f07ca36c709/login]

Alternatively, you can also top up on-site with cash or using debit and credit cards. All information about our Cashless concept will be available shortly on our website under FAQs.

That's it!

Stay dreamy,

Your Bucht der Träumer*

Ahoy you sun worshippers!

Our ship has torn itself from the anchor ropes with excitement and is - always ahead of the Polar Star - on its way to Brandenburg at 180 knots. At breakneck speed, it's off through the cloud cover, at full speed over our heated planet. We have almost reached the critical flight altitude and are in the middle of the festival summer!

It is with some amazement that we can announce that all regular tickets for Bucht der Träumer* 2023 are sold out! On TixforGigs you can still find a handful of Fördertickets for all patrons.

TO LAST TICKETS!

In addition, our SupportA-Base is still looking for helping hands to support us with the set-up, during the festival or with the dismantling in return for a ticket.

So think again if your travel group is really complete or if you can think of some favourite people you don't want to miss in August. Last Call to Board!

Our live music programme 2023

Our shrewd content blabbers* are currently threading the last batch of exciting booking deals. As usual, you won't get your hands on our full line-up until we're on site at Lake Helene - but once again we've decided to exclusively present the live music programme* of this year's Bay of Dreamers* in our newsletter.

Live music has it harder than ever in the first official year after Corona. While big ticket providers are not only raking in huge profits, but have also appropriated massive amounts of Corona state funding, countless concerts by smaller acts & venues are constantly being cancelled due to low attendance. That's why we were particularly keen to expand our live programme this year and make it even more diverse. We would like to take this opportunity to thank all the artists for their trust and are looking forward to a bunch of great shows!

Hotter than any ice cream with hot cherries is our new Spotify Playlist, which features all live music acts of the Bay of Dreamers* 2023. There are some really exciting discoveries to be made here and we want to give everyone a chance to get a warm listen!

We've sent out detailed introductions to the live acts via our newsletter. If you don't have a subscription yet, but don't want to miss out next time, go this way!.

Ahoy

The Bucht der Träumer* command bridge is buzzing with activity. Ideas are being fed into our supercomputers from all corners, and every now and then there is a hiss and a clatter from the creativity generators.

The ticket sales are on the last meter and so much trust from you wants to be rewarded!

Therefore, we take a look together at this year's theater & performance program. Among other things, we discover the Circus Moon, Pinky Promise and many others!

In addition, our kitchen is looking for reinforcement at the Reflex-Festival (29.05-22.06.) and at the Bucht der Träumer (04.08.-25.08.). Ambitious festival cooks and sniping experts have a look right here! And for more jobs & internships, check out our website!

Have fun reading!

We act up!

Zirkus Mond is coming to Bucht*!

A big round sparkling something is getting ready for touchdown at Lake Helene:

The illustrious crew of Zirkus Mond packed their gigantic circus tent and brought a gang of daring acrobats, gravity-defying aerialists, skilled jugglers and magical magicians from near and far. In their luggage they have daring humor, delicate emotions, unbelievable illusions and artistry that makes your jaw drop. Come and be amazed!

Pinky Promise Cabaret

Calling all sensual deviants and luxurious lovers, join Pinky Promise for a cabaret show like no other!

Uniting some of Berlin's most hottest sultry and damn right delicious performers that feature a range of drag, dance and awe inspiring bendy performances for a show that will tantalize your senses and tickle your desires!

For a little insight into what to expect, they just released a beautiful and vibing video of their last event at CLUB OST. Check it out on vimeo!

EllebannA: Mischiefs

Look out for the MISCHIEFS!

These funny, long-fingered, lumpy–bodied twins will amuse and bemuse you with their unearthly outfits, eccentric dance moves and contagious laughter. A Costume Performance ensemble that transports its audience into worlds of wonders, infused with sophisticated madness.

Alvin Collantes “Fluids”

Alvin Collantes has become a permanent member of our Bucht family ever since his playful and energetic "Dose of pleasure" workshops. "Fluids" is an intimate duet collaboration with Jun Suzuki. The piece explores emotional upheavals through a close interplay of bodies and phantasmagoric vocals and soundscapes.

News from the galley

Afterhoursounds-Podcast by Schmeckefuchs

On his journeys across countless seas of music, Schmeckefuchs has experienced all kinds of adventures and interwoven them with the legends surrounding our bay. Now he has finally pressed the record button again.

The result is a diverse mixtape for quiet mornings in the kitchen, relaxing days at the lake and many other situations where the dancefloor becomes a minor matter.

This pearl was released by Afterhoursounds. Absolutely recommended!

A Panda Do Sol

You don't feel the spring yet? Then we have a music recommendation from our live program that takes the warmth directly into your living room.

A Panda Do Sol brings some blobs of brazilian carneval into our flourishing senses and imagination with their Brassband.

We can’t wait to move our hips and spirit to this joyfull sound! Watch the Youtube video here.

That's it for now!

Stay dreamy,

Your Bucht*

👽 Ahoy dear spring cheer, ahoy dear sunbeams!

Helenesee has definitely awoken from hibernation! The Booking-Klabauter* of Bucht der Träumer* 2023 are focused on the last mile and in the galley floor construction plans are rolled!

One thing is for sure, there is a lot of creative synergyies pumping through our systems right now and you can expect some surprises for the summer! This year it's going to be even more diverse, fatter and more detailed than ever before! The pandemic waves have smoothed out, which gives us a tailwind, and our crafty planning staff is in full swing!

In this newsletter you get a little taste of the warm season in the Bucht der Träumer* universe. And it's going to be a double whammy:

We have new neighbors at Helenesee: The Reflex Festival is for all fans of fast techno and will take place from 16.06. to 18.06. at Helenesee!

And over at Mellensee the crew of Sternfest is getting ready to climb into their space capsules on 09.06.-11.06.!

In addition, there are news about ticketing & participation, as well as a music recommendation from this year's program!

Have fun reading!

Reflex Festival

At the Reflex-Festival, Psy á la Waldtraut meets fast-paced Techno and everything that really gets going above 130 BPM!

Many of our favorite buchtis are at the start. As sure as the fat drop after the break, Dave Lewis, Josephine Wedekind, Vittjas Tief, Yetti Meissner and Yobovski & Valent, among others, will ensure sore feet and happy faces!

The rest of the line-up is also very impressive, including Boris, Braindrop, Cassie Raptor, Chlair, DJ Yara, DVS1, Hector Oaks, Fadi Mohem, Freddy K, Lokier, Mataraph, Otta, Orestis, Paula Temple, Stephanie Sykes, The Lady Machine and many more.

In addition, some notorious crews and friends are hanging around at the festival and provide hammering beats: Concrete, Durch, Elysion, Fhainest, Gaggalacka, Goat Ball, Gegen, Hard Trade, Heisss, Ismus, Parvati Records, Pornceptual, Sachsentrance, Sonic Loom, Synoid, Voknox und xXETEXx.

Not only the fat lineup will make us sweat, but also our festival sauna, which will be up and heated too. Because even those who like to really rock out need moments to come down!

Additionally there will be a varied workshop program with Pyramid Party, Kyle Patrick, Stinny Stone, Edgegar Stark and many more!

And as good neighbors we support the Turborave with our know how about the area and the already existing infrastructure of the Bucht der Träumer*: our serotonin tanks & confetti drives are under full steam for the Reflex Festival!

We are really looking forward to welcoming the festival summer after the long winter with a proper load of Psy, Acid, Techno and Deeptec!

Reflex-Tickets

Sternfest

South of Berlin, a crazy band is getting ready to conquer the galaxy with their infectious insanity and mischief.

The Sternfest at Mellensee takes place for the third time and let us put it this way: with a fat lineup like theirs every supernova looks pale!

Among others Extrawelt, Kerala Dust, Acid Pauli, Township Rebellion, Mimi Love and Oliver Huntemann have made themselves ready on the launch pad.

In the squadron also fly some well-known flagships from our rave scene: Rebellion der Träumer, Mystic Creatures, Ostend, Down., Easy Tiger, Schrottpourri* and many more create a euphoric ether of stardust, bass and grandiose floor concepts.

We are very excited to hear what our friends from Sternfest have to tell us about their journey into the epiverse and are already looking forward to galactic souvenirs from their crazy rave escapades!

A small taste of the Sternfest is already this weekend in the Kater Blau, where the wild crew from Mellensee cleans up the Hopper. At the brooms await you Elias Doré, Baba The Knife, Konfusia and SHA!

📣 News from the galley

Program teaser: Em Coco at Boilerroom

Amapiano is spreading like wildfire right now. The music style with roots in South Africa can perhaps best be compared with Deephouse at a speed of around 112 BPM. Instead of the typical buildup- & droparchitecture of technoproductions you can expect exciting percussions and life-affirming shouts. Rhythm and groove are clearly in the foreground here.

We are mesmerized and are looking forward to welcoming various acts from this genre to the Bucht der Träumer* this year.

For those who want to warm up, here is a listening recommendation from the Kenyan Amapiano artist Coco Em:

Youtube Video

With this music recommendation we close this newsletter.

See you at the next rave,

Your Dreamers*

🐧 Ahoi Dreamer!

While a frosty wind wraps the sails, masts and railings in a dress of white hoarfrost, a small flock of black and white penguins has made itself comfortable on deck. Their soft chattering covers the chilly scenery like a soft layer of snow. But enthusiastic rumbling and the rhythmic clatter of countless boots interrupt the wintry harmony with a thud. Rumbling large barrels and crates are brought onto the ship. With reproachful cawing one bird after the other disappears into the frosty wet and suddenly the hibernation is over: finally the anchor is lifted and the journey to the Bucht der Träumer 2023 begins!*

But before we depart, we are still looking for energetic support! This newsletter is all about how you can get involved in our beautiful festival! In addition, there is again information about the status of the current Presale and we introduce a new column: News from the galley.

Dear folks!

The barge is moored and in the galley the planning talks are bubbling! Maps are drawn and the measuring instruments are recalibrated! But the ship already has a life of its own! If you look closely, you can feel it quite clearly: it twitches and trembles rhythmically in the hull and tugs at the ropes! We are in for an exciting ride - a journey into the realm of light and shadow - forward to Bucht der Träumer* 2023!

In this newsletter you will find all the information about ticketing, which starts on Dec.6th! Here comes all the info, so you can get on board in time! Have fun reading!

Ticketing

Watch out! Our presale starts on 6.12. at 6PM!

TICKETING

The festival period is August 17-20, 2023, arrival on the site is possible from Thursday August 17 at 12PM midday!

We had frozen ticket prices since 2020, but unfortunately we do have to face reality. Like all festivals, we are struggling with rising costs. We are affected by inflation in all purchasing areas - but especially by the continuing price explosion of building materials such as wood and steel, as well as rising costs for energy and transportation. In the face of this, survival is also becoming more expensive for the well over a thousand people involved. The increase of the minimum wages is only one aspect - in the light of inflation we want to finance the people working in our projects better than it was possible in the past.

Of course, we want to manifest a few particularly exceptional projects at Helenesee on an artistic level and also offer a few very special surprises in the line-up.

This means that the ticket price this year will be 195€ plus advance booking fee.

To remain socially inclusive, there will be a contingent of Reduzini tickets again this year, at the reduced price of 115€ plus advance booking fee. These discounted tickets are intended for people with a monthly income below 950€. If you want to apply for a Reduzini, please write us a mail with the corresponding reason to: reduzini@bucht-der-traeumer.de.

To fund these tickets there is a corresponding ammount of Fördertickets at the price of 235€ + VVK fee. Thanks to all who are willing to make a higher contribution here and thus contribute a part to the social balance!

Caravan tickets must definitely be booked online in advance due to limited space and cost 47€ plus advance booking fee.

Park tickets for all cars can be purchased on site and cost 20€ each per vehicle.

For reasons of sustainability we still recommend to travel by Bassliner or by train and for all sporty people by bike!

Attention: Please keep your eyes open when buying tickets. The tickets are personalized and the further purchase is only possible via the site of our ticketing partner TixforGigs. In the past there have been many fraud attempts - please do not buy tickets from unknown people on the internet!

We hope to see many of you back at Helensee in the summer of 2023! Team Träumer*

Winter is approaching and the Bay of Dreamers* 2022 is already a few pitches behind us! The last year presented us with great challenges and demanded everything from us. It wasn't always clear that we would make it - cultural production remains an absolute tightrope act in these times. Sometimes it was tight, but the effort was worth it! We've been struggling with the effects of the pandemic, which has changed our entire scene. We had to deal with a landslide that made the shores o Helenesee impassable. This forced us to completely rethink the terrain. The topic of Awareness was very present this year. It remains central for us to continue to reflect and work on our structures. A huge thank you to everyone who put their trust in us and sailed with us through space and time. We couldn't have made it without you!

What happened on site moved us deeply. Thank you everyone for beeing as sweet as pie with each other.

Save the Date - Ticketing 2023

The date of the Bucht der Träumer* 2023 is August 17 - 20, 2023. Our advance ticket sale starts on December 6th at 6.00 p.m. here - Santa Claus has already put out his shoes.

TICKETS

We'll get back to you via newsletter one final time before everything starts, with all the details about ticketing.

Feedback Culture

Our sincere thanks go to everyone who has contacted us with constructive feedback on a wide variety of channels since the festival. Thanks for thinking along! We are already working intensively on how we can make our festival even better next year! Your feedback helps us immensely! You can still reach us here - and even if we can't always answer directly, we take your input to heart: info@bucht-der-traeumer.de

We're sorry that the employees of a sub-contracted security company have caused some unpleasant experiences in the are of the Mirage Stage - and thank you for letting us know. We will no longer work with this company in the future. We continue to work intensively on making our work structures more sensitive to discrimination. At the same time, we appreciate all Secu employees who have done their job respectfully!

We are also sorry that the wait at the bars took a long time this year - there will be a change here in 2023! All in all, heads are already spinning as to how we can make even better use of the site and make the sometimes long walking distances more entertaining! We are very relieved that after an accident with a work vehicle on the festival Sunday, everyone involved is doing well. We hope that everyone else has arrived safely back in their realities.

The cleanest campsite since the invention of the pocket ashtray!

And while we're on the subject of feedback culture, we want to state that despite all the challenges, there wasn't just something to complain about this year! We are immensely pleased about the many reports of positive experiences that you were able to make with us this year! A big compliment goes to all guests: We were absolutely blown away by how you left the campsite! Thank you for treating our shared celebration space so respectfully!

Thank You!!

Before we dive into the planning again, we would like to bow again to everyone who was by our side this year. Bucht der Träumer* is a complex structure that would be unthinkable without the passionate commitment of well over a thousand people.

This necessarily includes:

All artists, awareness-team, the construction kiosk, bassliner crew, all construction, floor and decoration crews, check-in, reception and info point, care workers, crew kitchen and foodies, ecoteam and upcycling, gastro team, fire brigade & DRK, beverage supply & data juggling, digital coin department, festival photographers, artist office, lighting and sound technology, performance & theater planning, production team, psycare, roller skate disco, sauna space, stage management, supportabase, space operations and all the crazy microcosms on the site from screen printing to the post office, cleaning team, secu, transport, ticketing, medical team, tent builders, trust center, workshop space & workshop leaders! 🙏🙏🙏

We would never have come this far without you!

See You next summer! Team Träumer*
