The iconic Time Warp festival returned to South America this past weekend, taking over São Paulo's Vale do Anhangabaú for two nights of pulsating techno. Celebrating its 30th anniversary year, Time Warp 2024 brought the spirit of the genre's birthplace – Germany – to Brazil, with a lineup boasting some of the most revered DJs in the world.
Friday Night Frenzy
The festivities kicked off on Friday, May 3rd, with a diverse range of talent taking the stage. Local hero, ANNA, delivered a high-energy set, while the legendary Rødhåd kept the crowd moving with his signature driving techno. The highlight of the night was arguably the back-to-back set featuring Ben Klock and the rising star, Adiel. Their contrasting styles fused seamlessly, creating a truly unique and captivating soundscape.
Saturday's Stellar Selection
Saturday night saw the energy levels ramp up even further.
Time Warp established itself in 1994 as one of the biggest techno spectacles in the world. The German edition of the festival is a hot-spot for thousands of party people every year. Since 2000, Mannheim has been the festival's home base.
For over two decades, Time Warp stands out globally because of its uncompromised production levels. But Mannheim is not only the ideal location for unique floor designs. The roster of techno artists also captures the underground spirit of the event. Titans of the genre return on a regular basis alongside up-and-coming artists.
Time Warp has since grown from a local highlight to an international behemoth. Global editions are held in cities like New York, Amsterdam, Sao Paulo and Milan.
