The city of Cologne will become the epicenter of the Northern Soul movement from 22 to 24 March 2024 when the first Cologne Soul Weekender CSW opens its doors. The festival promises an unforgettable weekend full of soul, rhythm and culture in four first-class locations.
On Saturday, 23.03.2024, the highlight of the CSW will take place at GLORIA - the Northern Soul Allnighter. Seven of the best Northern Soul DJs from Berlin, Hamburg, Darmstadt and Cologne will set the GLORIA dance floor ablaze from 20:00. The first 24 guests will receive a welcome gift.
Northern Soul is much more than just a style of music - it is a passionate movement that has its roots deep in the cities of northern England. Originating in the late 1960s as a response to the social, economic and political challenges of the time, Northern Soul brought together a generation of young people yearning for community, self-expression and a place of escape. Inspired by the pulsating rhythms of American soul and R&B music, clubbers in cities such as Manchester, Wigan and Stoke-on-Trent began to gather in dark, stuffy dance halls to dance to the sounds of rare vinyl records imported from the US.
The Northern Soul movement developed into a youth culture in its own right, becoming known for its energetic dance events, collector culture and distinctive fashion style. Today, decades later, the Northern Soul scene lives on and remains a source of inspiration and community for people around the world. #colognesoulweekender
