Rethinking Mobility
The HipHop Ball is proud to have Uber as its official Presenting Partner. What connects the two? A sense for the zeitgeist, community spirit, and the shared goal of creating new spaces for creativity and participation. Uber has evolved into a global mobility platform that is now indispensable. With options like UberX and Taxi, the company connects millions of people across more than 70 countries, helping them get from A to B safely, flexibly, and efficiently. At the same time, Uber is committed to sustainable mobility, local partnerships, and innovative technologies that make urban life simpler and more inclusive.
Why We Celebrate Uber
HipHop Ball is a space for transformation – between classical and contemporary, scene and style, community and stage. And Uber brings exactly that spirit to the streets. While we open up new perspectives on music and art at the Rotes Rathaus, Uber is working on how people can move simply, reliably, and affordably. We love partners who think ahead, lead the way, and stay fresh – and Uber is exactly that. A company that doesn’t just put innovation into an app but translates it into real societal needs.
What impresses us most about Uber are the new ways it makes mobility accessible to a wide range of people. For example, the Seniors Option enables older adults to use the app more easily and access rides safely – a meaningful step toward digital inclusion. The Women Drivers feature also promotes a sense of safety and autonomy by allowing female riders to specifically choose female drivers. Especially in urban nightlife, this is a powerful signal and a true boost in trust.
This social awareness runs like a common thread through many of Uber’s ride options. Equally forward-thinking is the integration of traditional taxis into the app, which opens them up to new customer groups and additional revenue. It’s clear: this isn’t about competition, but about smart collaboration.

A Shared Drive
Uber is rethinking mobility. We’re rethinking culture. Together, we’re building bridges between the street and the big stages of this city. Whether on your way to the HipHop Ball or heading back home – Uber gets you there safely. And together, we’re bringing more visibility to the ideas and visions that move us.
HipHop Ball x Uber – let’s ride the future.
