The party is located in Bingen am Rhein, a beautiful small town at the junction of the rivers Rhine and Nahe. Bingen is surrounded by a varied landscape, known for its natural beauty, its castles and other places of interest. It's around 80km west of Frankfurt/Main, and 100km south of Cologne. Bingen is easily reachable by car (A60 and A61 motorways), by rail (Intercity Express, Intercity, Eurocity and regional trains), by air (Frankfurt-Main, Frankfurt-Hahn and Cologne/Bonn (CGN) airports), and by inland shipping, and therefore is a perfect choice for an international event like Breakpoint.

The party will start on Friday, April 10th at 12:00PM and end on Monday, April 13th at 1:00PM. This makes 73 hours of non-stop fun.<br>

Competitions are probably the main attraction of every decent demo-party. This is where people get to show their skills to a (hopefully) big audience, this is where you get to see productions that may become milestones in scene history, and this is where you get to see how good you really are.<br>
<br>
<br>
To make the competition fair and interesting for both the demomakers and the viewers, there are rules. Deciding about these rules is always hard, and so is deciding which compos to hold. We hope you can agree with our decisions - but if you have a good idea on how to improve them, feel free to contact the respective organizers, we always have an open ear for constructive criticism!<br>
<br>
<br>
Of course, a party is not a dead serious event - it's also about entertainment. We'll try to make the compos as entertaining as possible for you, and there will also be fun competitions organized by our event team. They will be announced on the party. If you have a good idea for a fun compo, contact them!<br>
