About this event
Refuge Worldwide and Atelier Gardens present a free, family-friendly, day-time open air to celebrate the longest day of the year and Fête de la Musique. From 12-10PM, we will have an eclectic music program soundtracking the courtyard, plus an additional space on the rooftop overlooking the iconic Tempelhofer Feld. DJ sets come from Refuge friends and family: Aalia, DJ Hops, elliephunk, Karani & Caesarr (Sueya Collective), michi & Myriam and Sofia Kourtesis.
Atelier Gardens is a 6-acre campus tucked into the industrial edge beneath Tempelhofer Feld. Previously the historic BUFA studios, with 100 years of cinematic storytelling history, the site has since been transformed into a home for artists, organisers, musicians, filmmakers.
RSVP via Refuge Worldwide website.
We will collect optional 2€ donations at the door for a TBA charity.
Lineup
Aalia Iraki
DJ Hops
DJ from Berlin, affiliated with the Version series of events. Resident DJ at OHM Gallery and Refuge Worldwide.
elliephunk
elliephunk (she/her) is an old-school CD collector turned Berlin club regular, with a passion for music that soothes the soul. Raised between Taipei and Kansas City, with formative years in Spain, her sound blends global influences — from jazz, bossa nova, and RnB to the house grooves that now define her signature sets. Her selections balance soulful melodies and spicy rhythms, weaving handbag vocals, Afro/Latin beats, UKG breaks, and nostalgic samples into playful, bass-heavy blends. Beyond the booth, she leads @casadephunk, a community-rooted project that reimagines the club as a home for POC, FLINTA, and queer artists to be seen, celebrated, and supported. ----- Her DJ journey and the story of @casadephunk started in 2022, with trip back to Barcelona — inviting along a group of friends, bringing her brand new USB loaded with spankin’ hot house tunes and a “fits perfectly in my carry-on” DDJ-400 mixer …her crew never made it out to Barcelona’s nightclubs. Since returning to Berlin with a new-found energy, elliephunk has been making ripples in its local music scene — from behind the decks as @elliephunk, and beyond as founder and catalyst of @casadephunk and "shoes-off" on Refuge Worldwide.
Karani
Karani is a Stockholm-born DJ now based in Berlin, shaping his sound within the city’s ever-evolving club landscape. His sets move instinctively across electronic music, techno, house, disco, and UKG — guided by energy, rhythm, and the room rather than strict genre lines. Expect fluid transitions, unexpected turns, and moments of release. Ballroom influences and future-facing club sounds surface naturally, adding tension and playfulness without losing the groove. Each set is built in conversation with the dancefloor, adapting in real time to its pulse. Beyond the booth, Karani is a co-founder of Sueya, a Berlin-based collective focused on uplifting underrepresented voices and building inclusive, community-driven dancefloors. That ethos runs through everything he plays: open, expressive, and rooted in connection.
