If you have no clue about where to go on Sylvester, read this: One of the main suggestions for friends of electronic-music-parties are the Pyonen. Their Silvester-Party takes place in the Görlitzer Park and presents finest electronic DJs like Der Dritte Raum, Sven Dohse and Whatyes on three floors.

Lightning Talks are concept which was introduced at 21C3. You can quickly show up your project and raise attention for it.
