SUPERBOOTH23 has been a blast! Each day was as amazing as the other days. For most people we talked to it was the best SUPERBOOTH ever and we totally agree. Thank you to everyone who was there and made this event so special. There were many great new instruments to discover (find them on schneidersladen.de), many new people two meet and even more friends to reunite with. Thank you all for coming!

A big thank you goes to the team of Superbooth Berlin who did an incredible job. Keep up the good work! We are already looking forward to SUPERBOOTH24! In the meantime we are happy to meet you at our SchneidersLaden showroom and shop in Berlin Kreuzberg and Neukölln. See you there!

The Minibooth!

Written on 13. March 2023. Posted in SUPERBOOTH Berlin, SUPERBOOTH23.

In about two months it is time for SUPERBOOTH23! There will be new exhibitors from all over the world who will officially attend for their first time. Of course the Superbooth Berlin team is also looking forward to welcome the many exhibitors, guests and artists that have supported the event throughout the years. The list of exhibitors is growing, now there are more than 160 brands listed already and there are more to come.

But the noteworthy news for today is not the number of exhibitors, but an event called Minibooth. It will take place on the weekend before Superbooth, also in the FEZ-Berlin and is focused on education for kids at the age of 5-14. Superbooth Berlin are not the organizers of this event, but of course they support it and maybe some of you have capacities and ideas to attend or contribute to this event, too. Please find the official introduction, the date and contact below. Participation is free of charge and it will be a great opportunity to introduce the fascination for synthesizers to the next generations in a playful way. If you are interested, please write to Tim & Julius at: minibooth@fez-berlin.de

Check out this message by the Minibooth Orga-Team fo more information:

Invitation to participate in the
Minibooth 2023
on May 6 and 7, 2023 12.00 to 18.00 o’clock at FEZ Berlin
For the first time, FEZ Berlin is organizing the Minibooth. As a warm-up for the Superbooth, it aims to introduce the next generation to the different aspects of electronic music. We are looking for creative minds, enthusiastic contributors and people who are interested in getting involved with an interactive offer for children.
Your offer for the kids can be, for example, a stand, an installation or a workshop. It is important that you enjoy guiding the children of different ages on their first journey into electronic music. On the Minibooth, the kids can playfully learn how electronic sounds are created and how you can make them yourself, manipulate them or combine them with your own voice. They will get to know unusual musical instruments and can learn or make new instruments themselves in workshops. Of course, there will also be concerts and a party for the kids, so everyone can try out the dance floor and shake a leg.
The event will take place on May 6 and 7, 2023 – one week before Superbooth. The target group are children and teens from 5 to 14 years accompanied by their parents.
If you are interested in participating, please send us a short email to minibooth@fez-berlin.de as
soon as possible, ideally until 3rd of March.
We will review your ideas and get back to you by the beginning of March to discuss if and how we can implement them on site.
We look forward to hearing from you!
Your Orga Team of the Minibooth
