Tom-Tom Club meets Week-End Fest: E.P.I.Q.

Week-End Fest never sleeps. Thus, the year 2023 once again stands for change. With an opening concert, the festival starts this year already on Thursday, followed by two intense concert evenings & club nights on Friday and Saturday. Here we put program points for a club set-up again more in the foreground. In 2023, we will play all-areas the Stadtgarten and draw from the full to serve you from the concert hall, to "Vivian's Bedroom" - the space designed by the artist Vivian Suter, which will become the central place of the festival, to the Jaki Club a colorful program. Because that's what the Week-End Fest has stood for since day one: the form follows the program - and not the other way around. The Week-End Fest is and will remain an intimate boutique festival where overlooked gems of music history meet promising newcomers. A unique mix of talented artists from all over the world - from Brazil to Uganda - united with our favorite Cologne residents.

E.P.I.Q.
Whether in the living room club, on the open-air stage or still on a specially rented ship sailing the Rhine: TheFLINTA* collective E.P.I.Q storms the dance floors of Cologne. Their own parties become red-framed dates in the calendar, their DJ nights pleasant events. Together and in changing constellations, Cologne's own AMSL, Anna Cainelli, C:Mone, Nikity, Piusch, Savannah, Sedaction and Sharlie play their way through mountains of current music. Sometimes closer to hip-hop, then again with strong global pop influences, percussion-saturated or fully electronic with broken beats: always danceable, always relaxed, always "EPIQ"!
