A dark 80s trip that brings Augsburg to life
On Saturday, May 16, 2026, the cold elegance of Depeche Mode meets the driving energy of a Dark-80ies party at Rockfabrik Augsburg. From 9:00 PM, the Basement opens up for an evening between synthpop, new wave, dark 80ies, and electronic night fever – with a sound that instantly evokes images of neon light, fog, and a sweaty club atmosphere.
When synthesizers take over the night
The event focuses on that mix that has made Depeche Mode a reference for dark pop culture for decades: distinctive melodies, driving beats, and a dramatic stage aesthetic that unfolds its pull even without large arenas. In the Basement of Rockfabrik, this vibe gets the fitting framework – close, direct, and with the typical audience atmosphere that turns a club night into a concert experience.
Dark 80ies, New Wave, and electronic classics
According to the organizers, the evening connects hits and rarities from the realm of Depeche Mode with dark 80ies, synthpop, new wave, indie classics, and current electronic tracks. Additionally, an 80s party with pop, rock, and NDW runs on the main floor. The result is not a static nostalgia program, but a multifaceted club mix with clear orchestration between dark elegance and dance floor energy.
