AL.FESTIVAL.2025
Berlin’s celebration of SWANA sound, community, and resistance is back this October for its 6th edition!
Unapologetically loud and boldly present, AL.FESTIVAL is a space of resistance and joy in a time when our existence is too often treated as a threat. We come together to disrupt, to be heard, and to carry both the rage and calm woven into our sound.
