The Block is evocative of Berlin’s spirit of techno with its emphasis on sound quality, safe space partying, and a no-recording policy. It is a pillar in the electronic music scene and a hub for up-and-coming and veteran DJs where party-goers head for an intensive techno experience.
Founded in 2008 by Yaron Trax, The Block opened its doors on Shlomo Road in Yafo, an ancient port city on the Mediterranean northwest of Jerusalem. Inside an abandoned bus station, lies one of the world’s most acclaimed clubs. The Block has four partitions: Block – Yard – Squat – Lounge, each with a different artist playing. The Block serves as a labyrinth of tunes and melodies where you can get lost to find yourself again.
The Block is what materializes when passion meets entrepreneurship and has since become the place to explore an array of electronic music sub-genres.
