Hip-hop culture in context

Mutual respect, recognition and networking are the pillars of hip-hop culture, and the team at Room – Hip Hop Spot has long embodied this spirit. It’s all about dancing, toprocks, freezes and power moves here. Breaking and hip-hop are the team’s passion, and they have long been sharing it with friends from all over Europe. In 2025, they will invite the world to Chemnitz, host joint workshops and organise battles and shows in unexpected spots all around the city. Even if you don’t have the confidence to perform the sometimes advanced dance routines yourself, it’s just as much fun to watch and admire people, and cheer them on.

When? From February 2025 till November 2025

Where? Room – Hip Hop Spot, Chemnitz
