A non-stop party: Lil Tecca brings "The Dopamine Experience" to Hamburg
On Saturday, 28 June 2025, Lil Tecca played a sold-out show of his “The Dopamine Experience” tour in Hamburg, Germany.
The evening kicked off with a DJ set and a performance by untiljapan, setting the mood for what was to come. Lil Tecca hit the stage at around 8 PM.
One thing that couldn't be ignored was…the heat - Yes, it was partly due to the ongoing heatwave, but the main culprit was the crowd. Fans were jumping, singing, and dancing nonstop. The countless mosh pits turned the venue into a sauna, and the excitement throughout Lil Tecca's set made it nearly impossible to pinpoint a single fan favorite track.
Talking to a fan after the show confirmed this. When asked about his favorite moment, audience member Michael struggled to choose just one:
"The whole concert was great !! From the preshow act untiljapan to Tecca"
A personal highlight for me was a wholesome moment between Lil Tecca and the crowd. As the rapper held up a hand-heart, the audience mirrored the gesture. A moment that, as a Swiftie, instantly reminded me of the Fearless segment in Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour.
The concert ended around 9 PM, giving the mostly teenage crowd the chance to head out and enjoy the night (after a well-deserved shower, perhaps).
The venue’s location - Große Freiheit 36 - on Hamburg’s famous Reeperbahn, the city’s iconic party district, made it the perfect spot to continue the night. Some fans looked like they had just stepped out of a steam room. One could’ve mistaken this for the SWEAT Tour. The bright visuals and flickering lights throughout the show brought to mind Charli XCX’s electric stage design.
The concert felt like a non-stop party. Lil Tecca isn’t one to talk much between songs - instead, he let the music speak, keeping the tempo high with tracks flowing back-to-back.

(Live) music is one of my biggest passions, which is why I enjoy exploring pop culture in my writings. From analyzing albums to reviewing concerts. I'm especially interested in fandom culture, which often comes through in my work.

I like to take photos of people in real moments, especially within music, fashion and subculture. I love when visuals feel raw, emotional and cinematic at the same time. Lately I’ve also been moving more towards film to tell stories in a deeper and more immersive way.
