Love Parade or Octoberfest
Berlin hosts the Loveparade every summer starting from 1989. Here are the facts from the previous years, history of the Love Parade.
Do:
- Take breaks and don’t overstress yourself.
- Wear solid footwear, a sun-shield on your head, carry sun block lotion and drink lots of water.
- Please stay on the ground (as opposed to climbing street lights).
- Eat a well-balanced breakfast the day of the parade. Pack some nuts and fruit, bread and cheese - be creative.
- Carry a backpack. You can be well prepared with sun protector cream, bottled water (plastic please!), your camera, food, etc.- make a list!
- Prepare to dance all day. Do some warm-up exercises before- it helps! Have some rest now and then, the park is beautiful (remember though to take care of it!)
- Enjoy the moment. Don’t be in a rush. The parade is there all day and all evening for everyone to enjoy.
- Treat others with the same respect that you expect for yourself.
- The music takes you higher. Dancing makes you higher. Show your love, not drug indulgence. Show your smile, show your body, show your aliveness!
Don’t:
- Don’t use alcohol and drugs. They are bad thirst quenchers. On the contrary, they dry out your body and you run the risk of fainting.
- Don’t buy illegal drugs at the Loveparade. You never know for sure what will be shoved into your hands.
- Don’t stomp on bushes, don’t climb up trees.
- Don’t start fires and keep your fingers off the plants and flowers.
- Don’t bring glass bottles or cans with you. Instead, use plastic bottles.
- There will be portable toilets available, so please don’t … well, you get the point.
You can get a Mercedes S500 that will stop attacks from sledgehammer blows and .44 magnum rounds.
The story starts with dark wood and titanium, chairs by Mies van der Rohe and deer’s antlers. These are the fittings that decorate the boutique of watch manufacturer Girard-Perregaux in Gstaad in the Swiss Alps - and these were the source of inspiration for one of the most exciting projects that BMW Individual has ever experienced. Transferring the atmosphere of the room to a BMW 760Li - this was the vision of the President of Girard-Perregaux, Dr. Luigi Macaluso, and the challenge for the designers from the BMW subsidiary that specialises in meeting exclusive requirements.
