Do you know this beautiful happy spring feeling full of juicyness and excitement? 🌿🍀🌱
The sun comes back
Perky green buds sprout here and there
Growing and growing
Rivers flowing...
We will bloom like flowers again
Flowering, showering - and shivering with excitement!
Oh, these hormones - what can you do?
When everything tastes like a promise ✨
Fairies and witches, monkeys and magicians, you beautiful tribe - it's time to gather around the fire and celebrate the arrival of spring! ✨🧚🏾♀️🐒🌸🧝🏻♀️🌱🧙🏿♂️🔥🧙🏽♀️🌱🧝♂️🌸🐒🧚♂️✨
Since the old days on the night of the last April and the day of the first May the village people celebrate the coming spring. Beltane or ‚Walpurgisnacht’ as the festivity is called in German is a celebration of fruitfulness and abundance. Traditionally, the people prayed for a year of plenty: a rich harvest, financial stability, good relationships and healthy offspring...
Until today it is a time to plant the seeds for what we will harvest later this year. And 2019 is an important year for finding our truth and learning to live accordingly and EVOLVE, both individually and as a community. Let‘s plant some seeds together and pray that they shall sprout!

Monkey DJ:
ALMA LINDA b2b SPECIAL GUEST
✩ https://soundcloud.com/alma_linda ✩
Alma Linda is widely known not only in the Berlinian but also international universe of downbeat. Currently touring South America and playing at the Brazilian carnival in Rio de Janeiro, we are more than happy and proud to have her back and playing for us soon. This time she will bring a special guest from South America with whom she will play b2b. The secret will soon be revealed here.
The rhythms of different landscapes are her biggest inspiration: Andean music, hip hop, Arabic drums and jazz, united with the heart of electronic beats. In her powerful downbeat-sets she blends these worlds, rhythms, cultures, melodies and musical memories into her most personal stories, delivered right from her bare soul. In doing so, fear, vulnerability and mistakes turn into creatures she's trying to become friends with instead of running away from. So don't run - just dance!

Another secret that will be reveiled soon...
🌱 MONKEY FAQ 🌱
Can I bring my kid?
No. We love kids - but this is not a family event. It‘s for people who want to relax without having to take care of kids, theirs or others.
Mothers and fathers are welcome - without offspring. Please organize someone to take care of your kid and take the event just for yourself...
If your offspring is 18+ they can of course come!
For families we recommend Ecstatic Dance Sunday or Tribal Gathering.
What is The Blue Monkey all about?
As the 11th kin (energetic quality) of the maya calendar, Chuen or Ba'atz, the Blue Monkey stands for the lightness and playfulness of the child that is not yet conditioned by society. Open and innocent, it just follows its impulses.
It is this energy that served as inspiration for The Blue Monkey. A Monkey day is a good day for dance, music, play and monkeying around. For a “Conscious Carnival”, a space in which we can drop our societal masks and flow together. We feel that this energy of lightness and playfulness is needed very much in our world today. At the same time we want to keep it conscious and safe and and thus offer an alternative to Berlin's regular club life that nourishes our need for ecstasy without the unbalanced overindulging.
