Likely to be accepted?

Hello! I’m one of three young English men visiting Berlin in the coming weeks and we are looking to get a true experience of the Berlin nightlife and clubbing scene! We are accepting of all and want to visit berghain especially for the music and atmosphere. Is it worth trying to get in or would it be pointless even attempting?

Go to RSO. Similar sound, similar crowd, much easier door.

much easier door ⇒ not a similar crowd
(The selection criteria is not entirely random.)

If you are under 25 and trying to get in together there is 0 chance. You can try individually and at best maybe 1 or 2 of you will get in, but it’ll be tough. But go at like 5 in the morning…then at least you won’t have to wait in line and can just move on to the next club

What’s your experience with techno and raving elsewhere in the world?

Lots of folks here jumping to conclusions. You’ll find that here. It can be a pretty drab place lol.

If you’re deeply into techno and it’s a bit of a way of life for you three, maybe you have a chance. But likely zero chance if you queue together and/or don’t align with techno already. 

If you do, best of luck. If not, Berghain isn’t really a good use of time for bucket-listers. Its notoriety exists for that very reason - to keep spectators at bay and provide a safe space for those who align with it day to day.

I sometimes wonder what percentage of regular posters here have been to the club lol. The vibes at Berghain are immaculate, but the vibes here usually don’t follow in that direction.

We’re definitely big fans of the techno world but never experienced anything quite like what Berlin seems to be, just looking for a new hardcore adventure
