KONNEKTION
Berlin · Mitte · Köpenicker Strasse
Techno in the power station
Tresor opened at midnight on 13 March 1991, when a basement door opened at Leipziger Strasse 126 in Berlin. Tresor Records was founded in the same year, and the club and the label have been part of the same story ever since.
The club describes its early years as shaped by musicians from Michigan — Juan Atkins, Underground Resistance and Drexciya among them — whose visits to Berlin started a dialogue between a European youth movement and Detroit. Tresor still frames itself as a site of encounter rather than a single sound.
Plan your night
Tresor runs its own door and entry. KONNEKTION does not take table bookings here — Berlin club nights are standing, door-and-ticket events.
Tresor's own words for the place are plain: “the light at the end of the long Tresor tunnel is a signal. A flicker amidst the fog. This is our future. This is our place.” The photograph above is the club's own picture of that corridor.
The club runs more than one room. Programme listings regularly name a Tresor floor and a Globus floor, with separate set times for each, so an evening can hold two very different line-ups at the same address.
Tresor publishes its line-ups and set times in advance, which is not true of every Berlin club. Use the listing for your date rather than a general assumption about what the club sounds like on a given night.
Tresor's guest information notes that self-service lockers are installed for guests to store belongings, and recommends downloading the DAYLOX app before arriving with a charged phone.
Tresor publishes its weeks in named series: Klubnacht on Saturdays, Tresor meets for guest hosts and labels, New Faces midweek for artists early in their career, and Singularity on Mondays. Each listing carries the full line-up and the set times for both floors.
Listening sessions sit inside the programme as well, with new Tresor Records releases played in Globus before the night moves on. Check the listing for your date; the series name alone does not tell you who is playing.
Find Tresor at Köpenicker Str. 70, 10179 Berlin. The club gives U Heinrich-Heine-Str. (U8) as the nearest station.
Why it stands out
A club and a record label that started in the same year and never separated, in a building whose scale is part of the music. Tresor states that it rejects any form of discrimination or glorification of violence.
Before you go
Tresor sells tickets through Resident Advisor or at the Kasse during the event; Resident Advisor handles purchases, resales and refunds. A discounted Community Ticket exists but can only be bought at the door, not in advance, and requires proof of eligibility.
A techno institution in Berlin-Mitte with a published programme, two floors and its own record label. Plan Tresor around a specific listing rather than a general idea of the club.
