ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Teknival

Okay kiddo, so teknival is like a big party where people who love loud music and dancing come together. It's kind of like a music festival, but it's more focused on electronic music like techno and trance.

A bunch of people who really love this kind of music get together with their sound systems (big speakers and equipment that make the music really loud) and set up in a big field or warehouse. Then they play music all day and night and people come to dance and party.

Sometimes people bring their own camping gear and stay for a few days, and there are usually food and drink vendors there too.

It started in Europe a long time ago, but now it happens in different parts of the world. Some people really love teknivals and go to as many as they can, but they can be pretty loud and disruptive to people who live nearby, so they're not always popular with everyone.
