11th April, 2008 “Babylon: MIke Shiver” took place.

Several months before the event, on forums and popular social network VK was released a trailer which immediately made a fuss and caused heated discussions in public. Users were wondering: what kind of event it’ll be, what performers will come, and most importantly, where it’ll take place as the venue was kept in a dark secret.

After active negotiations with local authorities we managed to take over the “Red Star” sport complex — the venue we wished for a long time.

The first time in Omsk a dancing event had a scenario, was like a theatre performance with DJ sets included.

Venue construction lasted for several days. We installed almost the entire light arsenal available in Omsk, built 6 stages, sound power we made amounted to 72kW. About 300 people took part in the event. The headliner of the event was named Swedish trance dj Mike Shiver.











At the end, when the last dj finished his performance, the song “Stop Crying Your Heart Out” by Oasis started to play and the names of all the participants went on the screen. At that moment a lot of guests sat on the floor and turned their lighters on.



For our team “Babylon” appeared to be the hardest event, it took us half a year to prepare it. Although, despite a great number of performers, actors, stage set, technical issues on a huge venue and innumerable number of confirmations for every little detail with authorities, the event went to the fullest extent.

And 3 months later, clubbers witnessed a bombastic open air “Heat”.
