Takeover

Takeover returns this fall for a second sleepless night. Four bands, selected by Sufjan Stevens, keep the Opera House full, while four movie marathons screen in the cinemas. DJs spin all night long, setting the beat for a nonstop dance party in BAMcafé, while video art, cheap beer, and endless diversions take you from dusk ’til dawn.
