Distortion is "the longest and the wildest party, ever" (milkandmoney. magazine), every year in Copenhagen since 2000, the first weekend of June.
We orchestrate 60+ parties over 5 days, each day turning one Copenhagen neighbourhood inside-out, 3 giant block-parties and 32.000 people.
Cultural focus is on the newest, the sweetest and the wildest side of streetlife and nightlife. StreetParties are free, ClubClash parties are cheap.
We try to make a festival for everyone: 50% for nice friendly goofy hippies + 50% for arrogant bastard snobs who only want the best of the best.
