2020 was a special year. Not just for the events industry. But also and above all for it. In order to enable events, special concepts and extraordinary efforts were required. From government appointments to socially distanced dance floor structures to disinfectant stations. An event that translated these and other considerations into a concept was the Aware Festival organized by Better Life GmbH.

The festival, which took place from August 21 to 23 at the Werneuchen Airport, was seen as a conscious gathering and an exchange of like-minded people. Not only through language but also
through music, art, performance, and culinary experiences.

The festival was opened by panels in which representatives from politics
– Christian Goiny MdA (CDU), Caren Lay MdB (DIE LINKE), Georg Koessler MdA (BÜNDNIS 90/DIE GRÜNEN) – as well as culture and media discussed the future of the events industry and topics like anti-racism.

After that, the music component was in focus. In addition to international stars such as Âme, Jennifer Cardini, Gerd Janson, Anja Schneider, DJ Tennis, Ruede Hagelstein, and the Adana Twins, some familiar faces from the Berlin scene such as Pauli Pocket, Sarah Wild, and Sarah Kreis and Caleesi were also present.

There were also a series of workshops – from yoga to meditation to various forms of art. In addition, a wide selection of vegetarian and vegan dishes.
