The Rave Atlas shows people where to find the best parties, shops and underground music scenes around the world

Spotted: Greek-startup Rave Atlas has created a global map for music lovers. The interactive, crowd-sourced map shows travellers where to find the best music in towns around the world.

The startup says its mission is to share information about niche local scenes, and up and coming artistry. So it goes beyond the known music centres like Berlin, London, or Ibiza. Rave Atlas’ members provide local insight so music lovers can party like a local anywhere in the world.

Joining is free and easy on the Rave Atlas site. Once registered, you can search a map for ravers, DJs, VJs or music events in your area. The startup already has over 500 ravers and DJs signed up on its platform.

Rave Atlas is tapping into the trend of music tourism. Rave tourists alone brought a reported 1.4 billion euros to the Berlin economy in 2018. It also has appeals naturally to younger generations, who are digitally savvy, place a higher value on travel experiences and are travelling more. According to Travelport’s 2018 U.S. Vacation Survey, more than half of millennials were planning on traveling more over the next year, compared to Generation X's 31 percent and 20 percent of baby boomers. Springwise has spotted several startups targeting niches in the tourism sector, including an online guide that offers socially-conscious listings to Londoners. And then there's the universally-useful online directory of public loos, though at the moment it's only relevant for those visiting Tel Aviv.
