The Association

Imagined by Kevin Shala and inspired by the spirit of Berlin’s club culture, LA MESSE is more than just an event: it’s a space of freedom where bodies can express themselves in their rawest truth.

Refusing to limit itself to party planning, LA MESSE has evolved into a full-fledged association, committed to making a lasting, positive impact on the techno scene. It takes concrete action through harm reduction and prevention initiatives, prioritizing the safety and well-being of all participants.
Its members undergo continuous training to better understand social dynamics and handle complex situations, driven by a clear vision: to create an inclusive, caring, and conscious environment.

LA MESSE also collaborates with like-minded collectives and organizations, particularly within LGBTQIA++ communities, building bridges, joining forces, and amplifying voices.

Our Core Values :

Dive into pure techno. Live your freedom.
Latex, leather, glitter – or nothing at all – come as you are.
No phones. No cameras. Respect is essential.

1. Respect and Inclusion Above All

La Messe is a space where every individual should feel welcomed and valued, no matter who they are. Together, let’s nurture a culture built on mutual respect and true inclusiveness.

2. Always Ask, Always Respect

Consent is non-negotiable. At La Messe, we ensure that every “yes” is clear and enthusiastic. If it’s not a definite “yes”, then it’s a “no”. Simple as that.

3. We Stand Together

We believe in looking out for one another. Support and solidarity make us stronger – be present, be kind, and step in when someone needs a hand.

4. Choose Words with Care

How we speak matters. Let’s communicate with care and respect, creating a space where everyone feels free, safe, and truly listened to.

5. Don’t Look Away

If you see any form of discrimination or harassment, take a stand. Say something. Help us keep La Messe a safe place for all.

6. Own Your Actions

What you do shapes the atmosphere. Act thoughtfully, stay aware, and contribute positively to the collective vibe.

7. Be Prepared, Stay Safe

Should an emergency arise, respond quickly. Alert the organizers immediately so we can ensure everyone’s safety.
