Watch Highlights Of WORLD CLUB DOME Zero Gravity Mission
The highly anticipated WORLD CLUB DOME Zero Gravity event took off from Frankfurt Airport this past Wednesday, February 7th, becoming the first club event in history to be hosted in weightlessness. The flight was the official pre-party to the “Hollywood Edition” of BigCityBeats’ WORLD CLUB DOME scheduled for June 1-3, 2018 in Frankfurt.
Together with the ESA, Fraport AG and the City of Frankfurt, BigCityBeats has shown what is possible when the fascination of science meets the joy and fun of entertainment.
A Zero-G Airbus normally used only for training by scientific teams and the European Space Agency (ESA) was transformed into a club for the WORLD CLUB DOME Zero Gravity event. International DJs Steve Aoki and W&W joined over 50 other people, including winners from countries as diverse as Australia, Brazil, Korea, India and Germany, on a 90-minute flight that combined the power of music and the novelty of zero gravity. Watch the highlights below!

At the press conference afterwards Steve Aoki said:
WORLD CLUB DOME is one of the best festivals out there. When I got the call from BigCityBeats asking me if I wanted to be part of the Zero Gravity event I jumped at the chance. Only BigCityBeats could come up with something like that. And now I feel like an astronaut.
W&W were no less exhilarated:
We were pretty nervous, but after the first jump it was, like, indescribable - even though any actual DJ-ing was all but impossible in the weightless conditions, because you were always swimming away from the console.
BigCityBeats' WORLD CLUB DOME is once again set to transform the Commerzbank Arena in Frankfurt into the “biggest club in the world”. The event will be held from the 1st to the 3rd of June 2018. For the sixth time in a row, 20 dance floors, 200 international DJs, 1.8 million watts of sound (on the main stage alone) and 140,000 hearts beating as one will combine to make Frankfurt am Main the world capital of music. Since 2013 BigCityBeats’ WORLD CLUB DOME has been assembling the world’s best brands, DJs and live acts in and around the stadium in the heart of Europe. The project has since morphed into a global phenomenon uniting clubbers from an array of cultures around the globe.
