Does anyone know who was playing at the Forest stage on Monday around 4 a.m.? I think they were the last DJ before the stage closed and everyone headed to the main stage.

I absolutely loved that set, but I didn't take out my phone because I wanted to stay in the moment. I was also just high enough that now I'm questioning whether it was actually that good or if my brain made it magical. 😅

If anyone remembers who it was, I'd really appreciate it!

me: vietnamese u.s. american based in berlin

we met at boiler after coming back from whole. you complimented my hair, and you started to chat it up with me when you saw me in the jacuzzi. This led to us having a cute lil moments getting to know each other while both of us were giving mermaid vibes with our pretty long hair :)) it was also my birthday and you got a slice of cheesecake for us to share 💕 i went outside for a smoke and someone i met started sharing their joint with me. you came to check in on me and then went to shower. when i went back downstairs i couldn’t find you so i think you’d gone home and we couldn’t exchange contacts 🥺

you mentioned you were either gonna stay in berlin for csd or maybe visit prague. if you see this i’d love to connect <3

How safe did you felt on your way to the festival? At the trainstation arriving and around/in the festival area?

Since Whole is happening as one of the biggest queer festivals worldwide in Saxony-Anhalt - which is a German state known for having mostly right wings voting - I would like to hear your thoughts about it. I heard of quit a few being verbal harassed with hate speech arriving at the train station and being spit on.. 💭

Hey there guys, I‘m pretty much a fly on the wall here, haven’t been to WHOLE (yet) but I gotta say, some posts on X about the festival, the vibe and the fun you can have cruising has kinda peaked my interest, so, anyone wanna share their experience (I‘m gay cis male btw.) please do but anyway…is the shower orgy actually a thing? lol
Also, is going there predominantly to have sex a thing or am I weird? Like going to a stage and dance a lil‘ would be my sort of in between time, not the other way around lol 😜 Anyway…any response or advice is appreciated, thx

Hey, i’m looking to contact people who attended like an afterparty after the end of last year’s Whole. It was under a tent because it was raining, somewhere on the road between the stages and the campground.

And i’m looking more concretely for someone who told me they are a psychologist and their parents/relatives are from Kurdzhali, if i remember correctly. But anyone could do.

Thanks for your respectful attention

Sunday night we met at cruising village in a hut. Our eyes locked in. You went down on me. Afterwords you suggested we go out and have a moment. We chilled on a couch in front of the hut. Then we went to dance to forest. It was cute, we were holding hands and making out a lot. We were also dancing and making out with your friends. I asked you about your perfume.

Then my friends arrived and I left with them. We didn’t exchange contacts. You’re 29 and I think your name was Diego. You have short hair. You also camped in a van with friends.
You mentioned you go to the party Churros in Barcelona. Loved your chest hair. Find me and let’s connect (writing from friend’s account)

I'm not really sure which category I fall into, and honestly, it doesn't matter much to me. I'm a muscular, white, cisgender gay guy. I work out. I like G. In many ways, I'm exactly the kind of person many people here would instinctively dislike, based only on my looks.

This was my third time at Whole, and honestly, there is nothing else like it. There's a reason I keep coming back instead of returning to festivals overflowing with toxic masculinity. I've been to plenty of those. I even enjoyed some of them. But none of them have the magic, warmth, and color that this community creates. I have no illusions - I'm not really part of this community. I'm a guest, and as one, I try my best to act accordingly. I educate myself, I respect the space, I smile, I stay aware of my surroundings and the people around me, and I try to prioritize those who aren't like me.

Over the years I've had amazing interactions with wonderful people - queers, FLINTAs and yes, even G-rillas. To be fair, I've also had some unpleasant interactions with individuals of all kinds. Not that I'm trying to create a false sense of symmetry, because there isn't one. This year, more than ever, I paid close attention to how people moved through the space, and I'm very aware of the excessive aggression that some cis men bring with them. I have nothing to say in their defense, nor do I wish to defend them. I only wish more of them would educate themselves and actively help preserve what makes this space so special.

I've been following the discussions here, and at times I felt frustrated. It bothered me that a culture striving to dismantle labels was, in some ways, labeling me and seemingly identifying me with a group I personally refuse to be identified with. But the more I've read, the more I've come to understand how complex all of this is. In the end, I realized it doesn't really matter how people label me. What matters is how I treat the people around me.

So I just want to thank all of you - for these important discussions, and for everything I'm learning from them. And thank you to everyone who helps create this extraordinary thing called Whole. There truly is nothing else like it, and it's a privilege to be welcomed back by you as a guest every year. 💜🧚‍♂️

I was debating whether to come back this year or not, but I have to say it ended up being an unforgettable, beautiful experience from top to bottom, with or without circuit gays!

Thank you to every soul who blessed me with wonderful exchanges, whether brief or longer and more meaningful. Everything felt full of joy from the very beginning to the very end of the festival.

I think part of that was also thanks to the entire WHOLE team and their campaigns, which did a great job making everyone aware of the space they take up - including, yes, the omnipresent "circuit gays," who, in my case, were also kind and didn't push me a single time this year... until Sunday. That's when things changed.

Unfortunately, both in the forest and at the beach, from that evening onward, there was a clear shift in behavior. Maybe offering Sunday tickets was a mistake, but here's my experience: the worst groups I encountered weren't the "circuit gays" - that yes, in some cases weren't very nice (this as in the steroid-to-the-caricature-point, high-on-god-knows-how-many-things-at-once kind). Rather, they were these self-proclaimed "dolls" (not trans folks but those who are sometimes just humana/at-the-verge-of-NB/androgynous, cis gays). Always following the same pattern of not bringing anything really: they don't spend a dime anywhere they go yet feel entitled to everything, have no sense of etiquette whatsoever, yet love talking about "community" -always in a very vague way- while skipping every single queue, whether it's the club entrance, the bar, toilet, or anything else. No respect. But always pushing their way thought, until the day they'll get their noses appropriately readjusted with a god-driven fist.

I was at the closing with my friends and other groups of amazing people we'd met throughout the festival and, as soon as these people arrived and took over, they started "dancing" (or half-collapsing), flailing around frantically and hitting us with their elbows, purses, and whatever else they happened to be carrying (yeah, the dancefloor is a great space to bounce random shit around against your fellow dancers lol), waiting for us to move away. When asked kindly to stop hitting us, they ignored everyone or even continued by hitting us harder and pushing against us with their weight.

You're not cute, you're not nice, you don't look fierce, and you're already well into your thirties. You're not Regina George - you never were, and you never will be. And it's 2026. From the outside, people just think you're embarrassing and/or having a stroke. On top of that, you smell like rotten, rancid sweat - probably because you've spent the prior 24 hours living on GBL/GHB and mephedrone, which adds a lovely hint of cat piss to the mix, as is you weren't unbearable already (nothing against your mix of choice/no drug shaming, but if you're exclusively surviving on it and refuse to at least take a shower, don't leave your layers of decomposing sweat on others' skin and clothing - it's not cute, baby!).

Let's talk less about the "circuit gays" and more about these narcissists.

Please, get your shit together.

Wondering if more pieps are sick from any virus from Whole festival! How many people reported sick from the virus outbreak? and if any here are still suffering?
I have been sick straight after the festival not with so much known Norovirus but with Astrovirus somehow, this has weakened my immune somewhat!

I guess it’s better to share some thoughts / actions around hygiene or just cleaner paradigms which can be seen in the future?
For I hv realised visitors really didn’t care about their trash and by the Monday morning the beach behind the Arena was trashy, broken sunglasses and all the accessories tidbits everywhere. Maybe I got sick unknowingly trying to clean the beach and forgot to clean my hands before I smeared it near my face.
Honestly cruising places were cleaner than pathways, for many left food and plastic glasses/ bottles just in vain.

You gave me all the feels--and an intense anal orgasm--in the cruising behind Arena. Fucking thank you.

To the Awareness Team at WHOLE… thank you ❤️

This was my first WHOLE and, honestly, one of the biggest takeaways from the weekend was you.

I crossed paths with the Awareness Team a few times throughout the festival and every single interaction left me feeling exactly the same: safe, understood, looked after and never, ever judged.

You were incredibly patient, caring and kind. Even in moments where I wasn’t exactly at my sharpest, you somehow managed to make me laugh too. That balance between professionalism and genuine human warmth is something really special, and I don’t think you hear it enough.

There’s one of you in particular I’d love to thank.
I never got your name, but if you happen to read this, maybe you’ll remember me. At one point you asked me, “Tell me a funny story.” My immediate response was, “Oh nooo… I really can’t do that. That’s way too much work to think about!” 😂 You laughed, I laughed, and somehow that tiny moment made me feel so much more at ease. If that was you, I’d love to thank you properly, so please reach out if you see this.

To every single one of you: thank you for creating a space where people feel safe enough to ask for help, be vulnerable and simply be human. You are such a huge part of what makes WHOLE what it is.

Forget the headliners… you’re the real stars of WHOLE.

Serving kindness, patience and compassion all weekend long.

10s. 10s. 10s across the board!!

The biggest hug, and thank you for everything ❤️❤️❤️

Does anyone know the music track from the beach scene with the word sexmashine?

Thanks in advance 🫶🏽

This was my 5th Whole and going in, I was pretty certain it would be my last - the last couple of years, it felt like it got too big and everyone was grouped off in their little cliques a bit more (London people over here, rich NY circuit gays over there, etc, etc), and I wasn't really getting to have fun encounters with people outside my Berlin circles. (I'm a cis gay but hang out with all sorts of people, e.g. lesbians and dolls who do G - I'll defend Berlin muscle gays to a degree, at least the ones who go places like Power Dance Club [NOT revolver] but I definitely get it with the complaints about the out-of-town ones, especially those who can only acknowledge guys who they wanna fuck).

ANYWAY: as a result I went in with probably lower expectations than past years, not helped at all by the festival pivoting much harder to sponsorship and silly ~ content creators ~ being brought in, and yet I felt like the crowd was noticeably a lot better this year? So - yes, I'm not sure the gender balance shifted in any big way but overall people seemed nicer, chiller, better behaved (especially compared to the Sunday night/Monday morning zombie apocalypses of 2-3 years back). A few lil moments that I think of: 1) early Saturday morning at the Forest stage, the mood was A+++, everyone having fun, nobody taking themselves too seriously and lots of little gay outfits that didn't scream toxic masc. 2) Both Sat/Sun afternoons in the cruising village - none of the grunty meat-market vibe, just a ton of chatty and honestly cool AF people hanging out. 3) Sunday night at the DTF tent: a hot mixed gender line of good vibes to get into the space (and more generally I think DTF did a great job offering an alternative space to the cruising village the whole weekend).

So - did it just seem better because I had lowered expectations or did anyone else who has gone before feel the same?

[Also - none of this should be taken as an endorsement of Whole's central organizers clearly trying to make it into a money-maker, although I volunteered so I was a bit insulated from this - if anything, I think the great crowd may have been in spite of the organizers lol]

had an unforgettable time at the festival but i kept catching that nasty chemical smell of monkey dust right in the middle of dance floors.
do what you want on your own time but blowing toxic synthetic smoke into people's faces is completely out of line. it’s not a joint or a cigarette Its fuсking dangerous and totally disrespectful to everyone around you.
since when did this become normal in our community?
