The world's largest electronic music festival triumphantly returns to
San Francisco on Saturday, September 24, 2005. Mark your
calendars now for what promises to be one of the pre-eminent
electronic music events in the world and a landmark event for the
United States.
A full "LOVE WEEK" of festivities is planned, beginning
Friday, September 23rd and running through Sunday,
September 25th, with the main event ? the Loveparade
?on Saturday, September 24th. This year's parade
promises to be even bigger and better, with an expected 75,000
attendees marching up San Francisco's Market Street to Loveparade's
new festival location at the Civic Center.
Unlike any parade the City has seen, the Loveparade is a "no
spectators" event, with revelers encouraged to dress outrageously
and dance alongside floats for the entire length of the route. Founded
in Berlin in 1989, the event has grown to over 1.5 million attendees
by 2000, with Mexico City, Santiago de Chile, and Tel Aviv all playing
host to international Loveparades.
The inaugural Loveparade San Francisco 2004 was an
extraordinary event, with over 37,000 revelers from all over
California, across the US, and as far away as Europe, Australia and
Asia attending the City's biggest new event. 30 Floats carried over
220 DJs spinning house, techno, trance, new school breaks, drum and
bass, jungle, and underground hip hop?including some of the most
renowned names in the industry. This year is already shaping up to
host one of the most exciting lineups in U.S. history with many
globe-trotting DJs being confirmed to be a part of this memorable
event. The full-lineup will be announced shortly.
Loveparade San Francisco has also partnered with Headline
Shirts as their exclusive merchandising partner. Headline Shirts
will be supplying DJs and attendees with official Loveparade San
Francisco apparel to include t-shirts and accessories. There is a
limited edition, pre-event shirt -- now available online at
www.loveparadesf.org. For the first design, Loveparade San
Francisco 2005 is paying homage to the iconic Highway 101. The design
sports a road yellow ink design on an asphalt colored shirt. New
designs, as well as a full range of apparel will be made available
throughout the summer. All Loveparade San Francisco apparel is
designed and produced locally and made to the same high standards as
the rest of the Headline Shirts product line. That means
sweatshop-free design, stitching, printing and vintage washing and
only eco-friendly water-based inks on super-soft, tag-less shirts.
In its first year, Loveparade San Francisco 2004 was named
Best New Music Festival by the San Francisco
Weekly in its 10th anniversary "Best of San Francisco 2005"
edition, voted runner-up for Best 2004 International One-Off
Event by URB Magazine and its readers, and was
nominated for Best 2004 Dance Event at the Winter Music
Conference's 2005 International Dance Awards, held in Miami,
Florida this past March.
