:''This article is about Distortion festival, in Copenhagen. For other uses, see Distortion (disambiguation).'' Copenhagen Distortion is a celebration of Copenhagen street life and international club culture. With an estimated 100.000 guests per day, it is one of the largest annual gatherings in Europe. Distortion is a mobile festival: the week starts in the streets of Copenhagen - in the Nørrebro and Vesterbro district - and it ends in the Final Party area, with 10-15 stages per day in the Copenhagen harbor. In 2013, the festival's tagline became "A week of Emerging Dance Music and Orchestrated Chaos". == History == The name, the concept of mixing all genres, the idea of ultra-mobility and the tag-line "Distortion — A Celebration of Copenhagen Nightlife" were born in September 1998 for a one-night party in the nightclub Mantra in Tivoli, Copenhagen, established by Thomas Fleurquin. Distortion became a 5-day mobile festival in June 2000, hosting a one-day festival in one neighborhood each day, for 5 days. Since the beginning, Distortion has been a hosting project, inviting local icons of street life and club culture to host their own event / reception / show during the week, and the Distortion team would bind them all together in a wild party route. International hosts started in 2004 with colette (concept store in Paris) hosting a radio show on a boat and curating a dancefloor at the Final Party (). Since then, some of the world's leading brands of international club culture have hosted Distortion parties: Vice Magazine, Fabric - London, Resident Advisor, Adidas, Ed Bangers, Kompakt, Trouw - Amsterdam, Fact Magazine, Red Bull Music Academy... In the period 1998-2007, Distortion was a small, chaotic, not-fully-legal 5-day party crawl through Copenhagen, mainly for the local underground art scene and club culture professionals. In 2007, after gathering 2.000 guests at a single street party for the first time, Distortion decided to go professional and entered a collaboration with the Copenhagen City Council and the Copenhagen Police: Nus/Nus - the Distortion Secretariat was established. In 2011, according to the Copenhagen Police, Distortion had 80.000-100.000 visitors per day, becoming one of the largest annual gatherings in Europe. In 2012, Distortion established Fonden Distortion København (the Distortion Foundation). 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Copenhagen Distortion」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
