Two illegal rave parties stopped in Munich: police intervened!
Last weekend, the Munich police had to deal with illegal rave parties twice. On Saturday morning, around 8:30 a.m., an unauthorized event in the forest near the Feldmoching motorway triangle was broken up. Passersby alerted the police after they came across a group of southern revelers with tents and an Antifa flag. The emergency services arrived with around 30 officers and met 35 ravers and a 57-year-old basic officer from the Munich district. The man now has to answer for an administrative offense because the celebration took place in a protected area of forest. All participants were asked to leave the area, as reported by sueddeutsche.de.
But that wasn't the only incident this weekend. On Saturday evening at 11:30 p.m., there was another illegal party on the banks of the Isar between the Braunau railway and the Brudermühl bridge. Here the police encountered more than 50 people celebrating. The 47-year-old Munich man responsible for this event is also reported. Fortunately, the operations went relatively calmly as both organizers were cooperative, so there were no major problems with the emergency services.
A look back at past events
These incidents are not isolated; At the beginning of August there was a larger illegal rave party in Munich, where ravers then ran across the motorway. Here too, the police played a central role and had to intervene to ensure the safety of revelers and other road users. This makes it clear that the city of Munich and its security authorities are vigilant when it comes to such unpleasant events.
The legal framework for such raves is complex. Event organizers need a permit to legally organize an outdoor celebration. This must be registered with the relevant authority up to 48 hours before the start and may include various requirements such as security measures and toilet services. The lack of a permit quickly leads to the event being broken up by the police, which often turns the situation for the ravers into a real “cat and mouse game” with the police, as [main-ding.de](https://www.main-ding.de/themen/ommends/Why-ein-privat-organisierte-Rave-polizeilich-aufgeloest- Werden-darf;art29086,1757657) explains.
It remains exciting to see how the situation surrounding illegal rave parties in Munich will develop. Quick and spontaneous gatherings are permitted in principle, but can also be broken up if the police see a threat. Munich citizens are well advised to inform themselves about unsafe outdoor celebrations and to follow the rules so as not to unintentionally end up in such a police operation, reports merkurs.de.
