Rotterdam introduces the first "Sustainable Dance Club".

Going out in a hip and trendy club and still be responsible. This idea forms the base of the Sustainable Dance Club. The presentation and kick off party of this concept, named ‘The Critical Mass’, are at the 14th of October. It combines contemporary lifestyle with the latest ideas within sustainability. This club night is the kick off for the realization of the Sustainable Dance Club.

Producing and consuming in a responsible manner are no longer reserved for a small group. Enviu and Döll – Atelier voor Bouwkunst have developed the Sustainable Dance Club together. An attractive way of clubbing combined with a low impact on the environment. Soon you can generate energy while dancing and flush the toilet with rainwater. The color of the walls changes as a reaction to the heat without any energy use and you can drink a biological beer at the water basin on the ‘relax roof’. These are just a few examples of what the Sustainable Dance Club can entail.

The program of The Critical Mass has been compiled by the bookers of CrimeJazz and Sound Architecture with the best soul, funk and electro. Enjoy the visuals of Urbi et Orbi and the innovative design of Döll. Surprise yourselve with the culinary theatre of Mischa van Teeffelen. Customize your clothing by the honest fashion brand Kuyichi. Drink a responsible beer from the province of Limburg. Pick Oké fruit in The Garden of Delight with TruusTrendy and dance in the light of the energy efficient LED-wand from Philips. Be a part of The Critical Mass!

Enviu stimulates sustainable entrepreneurship and the architect agency Döll combines sustainable design with experiment and research. The Critical Mass is the kick off for reaching that critical point of no return. The chance to make a difference while having fun.
