Family Reunion: 20 Years of J.A.W
A three day celebration featuring live acts and DJs in Berlin.
By Staff
This summer, Berlin-based collective JAW Family will celebrate two decades of its flagship event series with a weekend gathering dedicated to the people, sounds, and histories that have shaped the project since its beginnings. Tickets are live now.
Founded in Paris in 2005 and rooted in Berlin since 2010, JAW Family has cultivated spaces where music moves freely across genres and generations. The anniversary celebration continues this legacy featuring a powerful, diverse line-up, mixing longtime JAW Family friends, such as Theo Parrish and Floating Points, with a selection of exciting international DJs and live acts, including three special Berlin-based projects.
Taking place from June 26 to 28, the celebration will unfold across a multi-space venue in Berlin, with the program activating two parallel rooms. One will host live performances and club sessions that move between rhythm-driven dance floors and exploratory improvisation. While the second will open a quieter, more intimate environment oriented toward attentive listening in community.
The renowned Paris-based audiophile company Palladium Audio will develop custom sound systems for each space, bringing a tailored acoustic environment to every performance. Alongside the musical program, the weekend will also host an exhibition tracing twenty years of J.A.W, presenting archival materials from its founding in Paris through its evolution within Berlin’s cultural landscape.
