The Love Parade originated in July 1989 as a “big birthday party” for techno pioneer Dr. Motte and grew out to be a political demonstration for peace through love and music.
The 1996 edition of the music festival attracted a crowd of 750.000 people under the motto “We Are One Family”. Photographer Alfred Steffen recorded more than 250 ravers during a marathon 36-hour photo-session in a roadside studio. Resulting in a unique cross-section of those involved and has since become one of the best visual representations of 90s fashion and European culture out there.
