German techno guru Dr. Motte
and 150 of his closer friends started the rave in 1989. They
met at Berlin's 'Ku'damm' to celebrate a party and to demonstrate
for tolerance and love.
Now hugely successful: this mobile party attracts en-vogue
DJs and an enthusiastic crowd.
Some facts: In 2000, the loveparade's busiest year to date,
250 DJs on 53 wagons partied together with over a
million guests!
Recently, Austria, Israel, South Africa and Mexico
have joined the craze and organized their own love parades.
