Berlin is Germany's Capital City

That's also the cheapest capital city in Western Europe and a city with 50% of its population lower than 35, 10% Homosexuals, 1/7 foreigners, the best Indie Film Festival and where you can swim naked in the city lakes without being considered as a criminal.

ABOUT BATTISTON82

BATTISTON 82 is a collective based in Berlin organising gigs for great alternative indie bands, music artists and performers with a very open minded approach but also with audacious line up choices. We are keen to promote beautiful, interesting and unpretentious music and fun!

BATTISTON82'S GOAL? We are a collective of live music addicts and want to work with alternative artists we like, endeavouring to give them an opportunity to travel, to play outside of their own countries and to be discovered by new and unexpected audiences. As a show must always be as special an event for the audience as for the band, we also do our very best to find the best place or venue for each artist to fit its sound and spirit considering that the more original or stranger the place, the better it is!
DOES BATTISTON82 LOVE THE AUDIENCE? Basically, we think that if the shows (music and/or performance) are good, people will come…and also the converse. The only thing we ask is to trust us and to dare to come even if sometimes you don't know the artist(s). Tickets prices will stay as cheap as possible to give you the opportunity to discover new stuff while respecting the band. We promise you won't be disappointed!
