About
Balearic Sunday is a sunday party from 3 to 10 pm, that takes place during the summer months at the beautiful open air venue Palais Palett in Dresden. Hosted by Philipp Demankowski, it is all about having a good time while discovering new music, dancing your ass off and relaxing your body.
But this website is also a tribute to the highly influential lovefingers.org which shaped Philipps taste in music quite a bit. If you wanna know what Balearic Sunday sounds like, just click on the tracks or listen to the mixes and occasional live recordings from the Balearic Sunday-partys.

Philipp Demankowski (Balearic Sunday | Uncanny Valley)
Round 2 for Balearic Sunday 2024 with an ambassador of love who knows a thing or two about the fine art of diplomacy through music. Eva Porating not only regularly evaporates the oxygen in Prague’s techno temple Ankali but is also a resident at its open-air offshoot Planeta Za, where she is responsible for creating the right vibe. And musically and atmospherically, it’s not that different from Balearic Sunday. One of Dresden’s best kept secrets Bronko Taubenheim joins in with his live set, if he hasn’t already changed his name again. Host Philipp Demankowski provides the soundtrack for the first few hours, during which children are welcome to run across the floor pallets again. That was a really successful experiment at the premiere in May.
May 26th: 3pm, Palais Palett
Frinda di Lanco (Ciao Amore Baci | Music From Mullets)
PermaCouture (MegaSpirit | Musik für Pflanzen)
Philipp Demankowski (Balearic Sunday)
The most Mediterranean temptation above the Erzgebirge starts the season 2024 with a bang. Cosmic and beyond ambassador Frinda di Lanco, who otherwise pacifies dance floors from Sofia to Lisbon, from Beijing to Palermo and electrifies with diplomatic honors. Before that, MegaSpirit board member PermaCouture and Balearic Sunday host Philipp Demankowski underline that vibe is a top priority under all circumstances. Apart from that, the following applies even more this year: bring your kids for the first few hours if you have them. We'll come up with something funny.

Dasha Davai (Davai Davai)
Philipp Demankowski (Balearic Sunday)
Last but not least: For the final Balearic Sunday 2023, we get off at Tannhäuser Tor and surrender to the bittersweet embraces of Menqui. The Berliner will illustrate through musical examples how to shed tears of joy in the rain without losing time. Creating lucid dreams is his special skill, whether as a member of Dolphins, as a co-operator of the R-i-O label, or simply as a DJ. Dasha Davai can also share tales from such journeys, as she, alongside host Philipp Demankowski, ensures a pleasantly cool operating temperature.
July 23rd: 3pm, Palais Palett
Ready for the round 2? Balearic Sunday sprinkles itself with Cosmic Water in July and brings Saeko Killy and her live set to Dresden, the only true destination after Tokyo and Berlin. Her album "Morphing Polaroids", produced by Brussels selector soFa and released on Bureau B, is a real treat and this year's favorite of host Philipp Demankowski. So he can't afford to be lazy on the warmup. Neither can Good Boy curl, who has prepared a keynote on the subject of psychedelics in disco, house and krautrock.
June 18th: 3pm, Palais Palett
Balearic Sunday returns from the winter break and that’s reason enough to order a large cup of ice cream. After all, Bionda e Lupo play their highly entertaining live set for the premiere 2023. The most delicate temptation since someone put the letters NDW in a row, presents their brand new album "La Deutsche Vita". Lupo aka Sneaker will then also be behind the DJ booth, keeping host Philipp Demankowski company.
