TDK Time Warp brings a new vision for a truly unique and exciting form of event to life: colours of rhythm.

Established in 1994, Time Warp has grown into one of Europe’s most important dance events and has developed into an exchange platform for electronic music and lifestyle. Since 2005, TDK Marketing Europe has been presenting the time-honoured event as its headline sponsor. With TDK Marketing Europe, cosmopop, the promotion company behind the successful Time Warp brand, has found a strong partner to share and bring to life a new vision for a truly unique and exciting form of event: colours of rhythm. This new approach labels the individual zones with their own "colour".

"BLUE" is the music event which will be set up on four big floors in the Maimarkt convention centre in Mannheim. The musical programme stands out for its international headliners such as Sven Väth, Richie Hawtin, Ricardo Villalobos, Ben Sims, David Guetta, Chris Liebing, Tiefschwarz, Turntablerocker, Loco Dice and many more. The entire line up can be found on www.tdktimewarp.de

"GREEN" is the colour for the zone of the multimedia art installation showcase which will be hosted in the Mannheim castle. The exhibits selected for this experience all have one thing in common: their strong reference to music and technological innovation, the core values of TDK Time Warp.

Furthermore, TDK Time Warp will be hosting a special zone for record labels, marked as "RED". There, musicians and media creatives present their exclusive talents and promote their products. "RED" will take place in the Mannheim Music Park and Pop Academy, which is Germany’s one and only academic institution for pop music and pop business run by the state. The entrance for "GREEN" and "RED" is free, both zones start Friday 7th of April and will be open until Sunday 9th of April 2006. The tickets for "BLUE" cost 35.00 euros plus commission in the presale. For international presale information and bus travel organisations please check: www.tdktimewarp.de

Please note: All foreign tickets have to be changed before entering the venue into German hardcover tickets opposite the main entrance. This ticket exchange office will be open from 4pm on Saturday 8th of April 2006. Doors open at 8pm.
