Triebwerk

W³ (Tickets via Linktree or @tixforgigs )

September 18 / 11 PM / 24 Hours / 3 Floors / Triebwerk Erfurt

Three names, one ending, one idea.

Brandwerk from Aachen. Kraftwerk UKW from Rostock. Triebwerk from Erfurt. Three independent, community-driven club projects, spread across the country, that never intended to sound alike — yet all ended up with “werk” in their names. Three collectives that reclaimed former industrial spaces, transformed them, and brought them back to life as places for culture. Where profit once came first, the focus today is on sustaining club culture on their own terms.

The connection happened almost by chance. Some people from Brandwerk ended up at Triebwerk by accident, fell in love with the place, and kept coming back. Earlier this year, we invited one of them to play. From there, the idea grew into something bigger: bringing all three projects together for the first time - over one shared weekend.

What connects Brandwerk, Kraftwerk UKW, and Triebwerk goes far beyond the name. None of these projects were backed by outside funding or launched with a polished business plan. They exist because people wanted to create a place that simply didn’t exist yet — and built it with their own hands, their own time, and their own money, supported by their communities. That’s what underground club culture looks like, once you strip away the myth: precarious, self-organized, and completely genuine.

W³ is about making exactly that visible. Across three floors and twenty-four hours, you’ll experience music from all three projects. At the same time, we’re connecting places that usually operate in isolation, making the work behind them visible, and giving everyone the chance to experience what these three worlds feel like — under one roof.

Come by and experience what happens when three self-built worlds share one weekend.
