Blitz Club is a techno nightclub in the Munich district of Ludwigsvorstadt-Isarvorstadt.
History and description
The club is located in the former congress hall of the Deutsches Museum, completed in 1935 at the location of Munich's Museumsinsel 1 ("museum island".) The building housed Munich's largest concert hall and a planetarium until 1985, after which it became an IMAX cinema. The congress hall then stood empty for seven years, until the club's operators applied for permission to transform it into a club in 2016.{{cite web |url=https://www.focus.de/regional/muenchen/blitz-club-in-muenchen-club-wirbt-mit-einzigartigem-sound-und-handyverbot-blitz-eroeffnet-am-samstag_id_7007377.html |title="Blitz"-Club in München Club wirbt mit einzigartigem Sound und Handyverbot: "Blitz" eröffnet am Samstag |trans-title="Blitz"-Club in Munich Club entices with unique sound and mobile phone ban: "Blitz" opens on Saturday |publisher=Focus |author=Markus Sebek |date=22 April 2017 |access-date=21 February 2020}} The resulting conversion work required meticulous planning and took several months to complete. This was due to the numerous structural challenges posed by the building being located on a river island. The club eventually opened on 22 April 2022. {{cite web |url=https://www.electronicbeats.net/club-feature-blitz-munich/| title=Blitz: How Munich’s Newest Club Will Advance Dance Music Culture |publisher=Electronic Beats |date=14 September 2017 |access-date=21 February 2020}}{{cite web |url=https://www.electronicbeats.net/the-feed/podcast-perel-blitz-club-muallem-schafhausen/ |title=Listen To Our New Podcast With David Muallem, Laurin Schafhausen and Perel |publisher=Electronic Beats |date=11 April 2019 |access-date=21 February 2020}} The nightclub offers two separate dance floors, two bars, several chill-out areas and a smoking room. In total, the club can accommodate up to 800 guests.{{cite web |url=https://www.fazemag.de/neuer-club-in-muenchen/ |title=Blitz – Neuer Club in München |trans-title=Blitz – New club in Munich |publisher=Faze Magazine |date=3 March 2017 |access-date=21 February 2020}}{{cite web |url=https://www.vice.com/de/article/kann-wiens-technoszene-etwas-von-muenchen-lernen-thump/ |title=Kann Wiens Technoszene etwas von München lernen? |trans-title=Can Vienna's techno scene learn something from Munich? |publisher=Vice Magazine |author=Lennart Bernsdorff |date=12 May 2017 |access-date=21 February 2020}} Blitz Club also hosts an independently-run vegetarian restaurant.{{cite web |url=https://www.sueddeutsche.de/muenchen/neuer-club-ein-blitz-soll-einschlagen-im-muenchner-nachtleben-1.3399178 | title=Neuer Club: Ein Blitz soll einschlagen im Münchner Nachtleben |trans-title=New club: lightning is to strike in Munich's nightlife |publisher=Süddeutsche Zeitung |author=Laura Kaufmann |date=28 February 2017 |access-date=21 February 2020}}

The rooms were optimized for the acoustic experience together with sound engineers, architects and acousticians. In order to achieve optimal room acoustics, there are hardly any right angles in the club, but specially shaped panels made of beech wood and perforated sheet that were developed according to the specifications of an acoustician. In order to gently scatter the sound waves, a seemingly chaotic honeycomb structure, which was modelled after the swarm behaviour of fish, birds and insects and calculated by a specially developed computer algorithm in a week, is milled into the surfaces of these wall panels.{{cite web |url=https://retaildesignblog.net/2017/10/04/blitz-music-club-by-studio-knack-simon-vorhammer-munich-germany/ |title=Blitz Music Club by Studio Knack & Simon Vorhammer, Munich – Germany|publisher=Retail Design Blog |date=4 October 2017 |access-date=21 February 2020}} The club uses a custom-made PA system by VOID, which is arranged as a four-point system, so that there is a PA tower in each corner around the dance floor,{{cite web |url=https://voidacoustics.com/venue-blitz-location-munich-germany/ |title=Venue: Blitz Location: Munich, Germany |publisher=Void Acoustics |access-date=23 February 2020}} as well as 360-degree tweeters hanging from the ceiling named "Blitz horn", that were specially designed for the club, and allow the DJ to create three-dimensional sound effects.{{cite web |url=https://www.residentadvisor.net/news/38513 |title=Zenker Brothers residents at new Munich club, Blitz |publisher=Resident Advisor |author=Matt Unicomb |date=22 March 2017 |access-date=21 February 2020}}
Instead of concentrating the attention on the DJ and placing them on a raised stage, the main floor and the sound system were designed to set the focus on the dance floor and the dancers. All in all, the puristic club design is optimized for the sound and dance experience, while oversized branding is avoided. The visual appearance of the club was designed by British musician Trevor Jackson.{{cite web |url=https://www.factmag.com/2017/03/22/munich-blitz-club-deutsches-museum/ |title=New techno club Blitz to open in Munich museum | publisher=Fact Magazine |author=Scott Wilson |date=22 March 2017 |access-date=21 February 2020}}{{cite web |url=https://groove.de/2017/03/22/blitz-club-muenchen-david-muallem/|title=Blitz: Neuer Club in München |trans-title=Blitz: New club in Munich |publisher=Groove Magazine |author=Heiko Hoffmann |date=22 March 2017 |access-date=21 February 2020}}{{cite web |url=https://www.electronicbeats.net/the-feed/read-interview-blitz-club-graphic-designer-trevor-jackson/ |title=Read An Interview With Blitz Club Graphic Designer Trevor Jackson |publisher=Electronic Beats |date=18 August 2017 |access-date=21 February 2020}}

The situation escalated as crowds began to spill onto access roads, emergency exits, escape routes and nearby tram tracks. This resulted in a major fire brigade and police intervention to defuse the situation. Police and fire services blocked a nearby major arterial road, cleared the venue's front terrace and sent hundreds of people home. {{cite web |url=https://www.sueddeutsche.de/muenchen/museumsinsel-polizeieinsatz-blitz-club-zieht-zu-viele-gaeste-an-1.3475115 |title=Polizeieinsatz: Blitz-Club zieht zu viele Gäste an |trans-title=Police intervenes as Blitz Club attracts too many guests |publisher=Süddeutsche Zeitung |author=Laura Kaufmann |date=23 April 2017 |access-date=21 February 2020}} Numerous disappointed guests later criticized the event's poor planning and management.{{cite web |url=https://www.tz.de/muenchen/stadt/au-haidhausen-ort43334/blitz-eroeffnung-ufert-aus-betreiber-muessen-noch-viel-lernen-8205666.html |title=Beschwerden nach Polizeieinsatz: "Blitz"-Eröffnung ufert aus: "Betreiber müssen noch viel lernen" |trans-title=Complaints after police intervention as "Blitz" opening resulted in chaos – "the operators still have a lot to learn" |publisher=tz |author=Stefanie Wegele |date=25 April 2017 |access-date=21 February 2020}}{{cite web |url=https://www.abendzeitung-muenchen.de/inhalt.neuer-club-im-kongresssaal-andrang-zu-gross-polizei-muss-blitz-tuer-schliessen.bf6ac738-11f7-408c-8a01-b39a0f131f5e.html |title=Andrang zu groß - Polizei muss "Blitz"-Tür schließen |trans-title=Police forced to close "Blitz" club due to overwhelming crowds. |publisher=Abendzeitung |date=23 April 2017 |access-date=21 February 2020}}
