Today I´m going to a very interesting event called Lunch beat, where you get your food and go to a mini club at the same time. It´s like clubbing for parents, grownups, those who no longer want to be up until 5 in the morning, sweating on the dance floor, getting covered in beer by some drunk teenager. Ah well, for people like me that are "over the club scene" but still love the vibe of a huge bunch of people swinging to music, this is a brilliant idea. Can´t wait to feel it at noon today at Kulturhuset.
It was created by Molly Ränge in Sweden June 2010, and during the autumn of 2010, the underground movement organically kept growing, and had to find new locations as more and more people started to attend the event.
Today, Lunch Beat Stockholm attracts more than 600 people to the monthly events. Lunch Beat has about 25 international branches.
This is the quirky manifesto for Lunch Beat:
1st rule: If it’s your first lunch at Lunch Beat, you have to dance.
2nd rule: If it’s your second, third or fourth time lunch at Lunch Beat, you have to dance.
3rd rule: If you are getting too tired to actually dance at Lunch Beat, please have your lunch at some other place.
4th rule: You don’t talk about your job at Lunch Beat.
5th rule: At Lunch Beat everyone present is your dance partner.
6th rule: Any Lunch Beat are to be no longer than 60 minutes long and set during ”lunch time”.
7th rule: Lunch Beat always serve their guest with a 1 Dj-set and 1 take away meal.
8th rule: Water is always served during a Lunch Beat for free.
9th rule: Lunch Beat is a preferably drug free environment.
10th rule: Lunch Beat can be set up anywhere by anyone as long as they are announced as public events, are nonprofit arrangements and are directed by this manifesto
