TRACEY

Hi tracey, we've been expecting you!

Ready to be born again?

Berlin has always been a city of reinvention. A place of resistance and creation.
After a winter of shedding, recharging and reimagining, it's time to come together for a collective rebirth.

Maybe we're spiritual.
Maybe we're religious.
Maybe we just need something to believe in.

We may not have all the answers but one thing we do have is tracey.

tracey launches as a new queer party series and creative platform emerging from Berlin's nightlife community. Co-created by Adam Munnings (co-founder of Lunchbox Candy) alongside a network of artists, organisers and performers, tracey brings together lineups of DJs shaping the queer underground, club culture, drag, performance and immersive nightlife formats.

The first edition lands on Easter Sunday, 5 April 2026 at Kreuzwerk, opening with a 20-hour marathon across three floors.

Expect:
- 3 floors including an ambient floor
- live performance and immersive interventions
- an expanded love room
- a basement cruising space
- sober and low-sensory areas with mocktails and rest zones

Three floors, one mission.

The Plaza

ambient, experimental

The Plaza is tracey's ambient and experimental floor. A slower space for sonic exploration where you can escape peak-time pressure, perch up and dive deeper. It is a place to decompress, reconnect and experience rhythm in more subtle ways. Music here leans into atmosphere, texture and curiosity, inviting dancers to drift rather than chase intensity.

MINQ opens the room with a sound rooted in Black musical history and queer underground culture. Their sets weave experimental electronics with hip-hop, R&B textures and ambient soundscapes.

131bpm follows, revealing a side of his musical identity that audiences don't always get to see. Known across Berlin as a versatile producer and dance floor architect moving between house and techno, this set explores a more ambient and atmospheric dimension of his sound.

Closing the floor is Rafush, the Berlin-based Brazilian DJ, host and cultural force whose musical language draws from a wide palette. Her sets travel across moods, tempos and identities. The Plaza ends in her hands as a slow-burning journey.

The Sauna

high energy, sexy, euphoric

The Sauna is the heartbeat of tracey. A sweaty, high-energy room built for groove, flirtation and release.

Surf 2 Glory opens the floor with playful charisma and presence. From festival stage to tracey, their sets are cheeky, groovy and full of personality.

tracey co-founder Adam Munnings follows with a sound shaped across dance floors in Tokyo, New York, Berlin and Lunchbox Candy.

London-based Tedesco takes the floor next, bringing a rhythm-driven sound rooted in Latin percussion and queer club culture. As co-founder of the London party 2CPerrea, their sets blend bass, reggaeton influence and house energy.

DJ Petite continues the momentum. A Berlin-based DJ and tracey co-creator who made their name as a Lunchbox Candy resident, DJ Petite has become a presence within the city's queer club scene. Their progressive house-driven sound leans into hypnotic grooves and slow-building sexuality.

Closing The Sauna is Rachel Noon, with roots in New York's queer underground and ties to Berlin's club community. Her sets move between house, rave energy and emotional uplift.

The Atrium

house, journey, celebration

The Atrium is the house playground. A multi-level room to dance as the sun shines in, where classic house energy expands outward.

DJ Handbag opens the floor with a sound steeped in queer house lineage. Drawing from diva house, garage and bass-driven club music, her selections carry both attitude and playfulness while honouring the history of queer dance floors.

DHC follows with sharp selections and a strong sense of groove. Their sets blend house and techno energy with hypnotic momentum.

DJ Miss Parker arrives from New York bringing the spirit of DIY queer nightlife and Brooklyn's underground dance scene. Their genre-fluid approach keeps things popping, soulful and sensual.

Jennifer Loveless then takes the floor into more emotional territory. The Berlin-based producer and DJ is known for expressive club music that balances house and techno with a sense of introspection and intensity.

Closing The Atrium is ketia, whose presence in Berlin queer nightlife is rooted in community and musical generosity. Their sets are wide-ranging and intuitive. As the final hours unfold, ketia guides the room through an extended closing journey that celebrates connection and release.

Your hosts

Art imitating tracey, or tracey imitating art?

Throughout the tracey experience our hosts, performers and creatures move through the rooms bringing surprise activations, spontaneous moments and immersive encounters that blur the line between clubbing, drag and performance art.

The performance programme is led by Nancy Nutter, an artistic disruptor and the creator behind the performance collective The Dames. Nancy has shaped queer stage work across the city and also serves as the live stage performance coordinator for Whole Festival. A longtime collaborator who helped shape the performance world of Lunchbox Candy, Nancy now brings a distinct theatrical chaos as a co-creator of tracey, curating a lineup of artists who turn the rave into something more than a party.

Among them is the shapeshifting club kid Coco Klein, whose performances blur glamour, absurdity and club kid chaos.

Phoenix Chase Mears brings high energy to the dance floor and delivers immersive activations that pull the crowd directly into the experience.

Filipino diva Bibingka returns from an international tour, bringing glamour and stage presence.

The artist Hungry embraces their inner tracey. Known for sculptural makeup, avant-garde drag and otherworldly aesthetics, Hungry's work is recognised in contemporary drag and performance art.

Nightlife figure Reverso, who has been shaping the club scene for more than three decades, brings underground lineage and charisma to the floor.

Connie Lingus is a multidisciplinary force, a performer who moves between pole, drag king, drag queen and sex-positive performance art.

For Easter weekend, Scotty the Blue Bunny and Chiqui Love will be hopping through the party with playful bunny energy and a few surprises along the way.

Expect the unexpected.

The Love Room

sensual playground

tracey is sex-positive and sexuality here is something to be celebrated, explored and embraced.

The Love Room is an erotic playground and sensual social space curated by flinta* sex worker collective The House of Steel, headed by Valerian Steel and Eros in Furs. This space invites guests to indulge their fantasies in an environment that is open to all bodies and identities.

Designed as a place for curiosity, flirtation and connection, The Love Room presents pleasure as part of the rave experience. Whether you are exploring, diving deep or simply soaking in the atmosphere, everyone is welcome to engage at their own pace.

Alongside the play space, the Love Bar offers a sober oasis serving smoothies, mocktails and ginger shots to recharge and reset before heading back into the night.

Throughout the evening, expect appearances and playful interventions from Angel, Bishop Black, Bleach, Eddy Entropy, Ixa Psyborg and Wally, each bringing their own flavour of mischief to the room.

It's fun.
It's flirty.
It's fuckery.
All in the name of love.
