Titled Phantom Parade, the 2025 edition of AN(8)X turns to the spectral as point of entry into questions of memory, identity, and the unfinished histories of oppression. Drawing on ghostly figures from East and Southeast Asian cultures, this year’s festival invites reflection on what haunts: the echoes, absences, and the hidden, othered by dominant narratives.
Alongside the return of our live-heavy evening program and community-focused daytime offerings including markets and karaoke club, this year’s festival also features a two-stage party co-curated with three iconic collectives: Curandera, General Affair and Soul Feeder. Building on the radical spirit of communal vision that shaped our inaugural edition, Phantom Parade is an attempt to form a new collaborative framework within Berlin’s underground club scene at a moment of precarity
