In the sweltering heat, 200,000 ravers march around the Tiergarten

The techno parade "Rave the Planet" may go place after some back and forth concerning the security idea. Despite the heat, ravers flocked to Straße des 17. Juni. The police had an unusual request, and the fire department drew a favourable balance.

In the sweltering heat, 200,000 ravers march around the Tiergarten.

Large people attend the "Rave the Planet" techno parade in Berlin-Tiergarten.

Strange police request to the ravers Event only approved hours before it begin.

According to the fire and police departments, there were no major occurrences.

The techno parade "Rave The Planet" in Berlin-Tiergarten drew a large crowd late into the evening. The party, which featured 25 music
floats, followed in the footsteps of Dr. Motte's iconic Love Parade on the Straße des 17. Juni between the Brandenburg Gate and the Großer Stern.

The event was only given the go-ahead by the fire department and police on Saturday afternoon. According to a police spokeswoman, that is how long it took for the security concept of the Techno-Parade to be finally checked. On Sunday morning, the operations management of the fire department and police department reported a favourable balance: no "notable incidents."

"Music is the answer"

dr Moth says "Nice to see you" and off we go. Around 200,000 participants - according to the number of the Berlin police in the evening - celebrate the music. The claim is global: "Rave the Planet" is the title of the techno parade on the 17th of June.

"Please do not undress"

Jens-Peter Wilke, a spokesman for the fire service, was pleased with the outcome of the techno demo. The fire department and medical services were strategically placed. The firefighters had to care for roughly 150 individuals in medical tents, with 51 of them being transferred to hospitals, according to a tweet from the fire department on Sunday morning.

Dr. Motte, the originator of Love Parade, addressed the dancing audience just after 2 p.m., saying, "Our motto is 'Music is the answer.'" "It's good to see you," he said. The police predicted 200,000 participants, with 300,000 registering.

Many individuals revealed bare flesh on June 17th Street in brilliant sunshine and temperatures above 30 degrees.

This prompted an interesting call from the police, which elicited both laughter and puzzlement on Twitter: "A request that we didn't think we'd have to drop: Please don't undress on #ravetheplanet." Participants who registered complained to us. #b0807"

Organizer calls for donations again

Because of the security concept, the event was on the verge of collapse until the very end. There were no contracts with medical services for a long period. The situation is nearly fixed thanks to contributions, and a private supplier has been employed. "There's still a loose 150,000 euros missing," Dr. Moth stated. As a result, he requested more money.

The funding for the medical service is solid, but it has created a financial shortfall, according to Timm Zeiss, co-managing director of "Rave the Planet" gGmbH, on Saturday at the request of rbb | 24.

Now "one or the other shareholder has to put something in again".

Fire brigade satisfied with security concept - around 1,000 police officers on duty

"That made a reasonable impression on us," a fire department spokeswoman said of the safety notion. Around 270 persons were on site as medical personnel, with organisers claiming 240 volunteers. According to the spokeswoman, the fire department also accompanied the march with its own troops and handled emergency calls.

Around 1,000 police officers escorted the event in the Tiergarten, according to the police. There were no major occurrences. Almost 60 criminal accusations of "all colours" were filed. The primary focus was on bodily harm and Narcotics Act breaches.

Chialo: Techno Parade "Urberliner event"

Joe Chialo, Berlin's Senator for Culture, was among those who took part in the Techno Parade. "I celebrate music," stated the CDU lawmaker at the opening of the gathering on Saturday. "Rave The Planet" maintains a long-standing tradition in the city. The CDU leader emphasised the Love Parade was a "Urban event" in his remarks.

"Berlin is a city of diversity, not simplicity," he stated at the same time. Anti-Semitism, racism, and homophobia have no place here."
