Mayday (music festival)

Mayday is an electronic music festival in Germany, where it debuted in 1991, and in Katowice, Poland where it debuted in 2000. Despite the name, Mayday festivals date oscillates between April and December (these being called Winter Mayday). Currently, the festival takes place only in around 30 April in Dortmund and 10 November in Katowice.

Each Mayday has a theme. Until 2013 it was composed by Members of Mayday, DJs WestBam and Klaus Jankuhn.

Since 1998 Mayday (Germany) is supported by eve&rave Münster e.V. with drug-information-desks.

Although it played techno music in its early days, in recent years Mayday has opened up to new sounds, from hardstyle to house, trance and EDM.
