20:00 – 07:00 // 250 Dkk presale – 300 Dkk door

Raw 2010 @Docken Scandinavia’s biggest clubbing event or you could call it a one day Festival with 7 areas on over 10.000 m2. This huge outdoor festive with a wide variety of music and more then 50 DJ’s, MC’s and live act’s is a must check for every party hungry person.

Last year’s event had 7.000 visitors celebrating at the unique location in Copenhagen harbour, it is to be expected to reach same heights this year again. Which shouldn’t be any problem with the Lineup containing some big names of most musical genres played around the city with a combination of local and foreign artists, especially as RAW was voted as the best event of the year three times and won numerous other awards so as best club event.

There is a everything from a Hiphop, Techno, Drum and Bass to a chill out area – not to be missed out on.

For more information check the website and find some nice DJ mixes, pictures of earlier years and of course you can buy your ticket online as well.

With a mixed constellation of both Copenhagener and international artists the Artrebels crew will show you that vibrant and colorful expression has much to say.
