With great respect for its history \u2013 and with just as much delight in what is constantly evolving.<\/p>\n<h3 data-start=\"662\" data-end=\"700\">One shop, many scenes \u2013 one DNA<\/h3>\n<p data-start=\"702\" data-end=\"1016\">The Booster was never just a fad. It has always been a meeting place, playground, sanctuary and stage. From the fifties through punk, rock, hip-hop, rave and goth to the queer scene: with us, all sorts of people stood \u2013 and stand \u2013 side by side, respectfully, inquisitively and openly. That was, and is, our ethos.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1018\" data-end=\"1238\">We go with the trends, but not every single one. It is important to us that the Booster stays true to itself. That you can find an outfit here for a festival \u2013 or indeed for the stage, the club or simply for your own statement.<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-7255 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.booster.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/DSC_2075.jpg?resize=1624%2C1083&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"1624\" height=\"1083\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.booster.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/DSC_2075.jpg?resize=1624%2C1083&amp;ssl=1 1624w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.booster.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/DSC_2075.jpg?resize=500%2C333&amp;ssl=1 500w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.booster.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/DSC_2075.jpg?resize=768%2C512&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.booster.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/DSC_2075.jpg?resize=1536%2C1024&amp;ssl=1 1536w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.booster.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/DSC_2075.jpg?resize=18%2C12&amp;ssl=1 18w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.booster.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/DSC_2075.jpg?resize=1800%2C1200&amp;ssl=1 1800w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.booster.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/DSC_2075.jpg?resize=1280%2C853&amp;ssl=1 1280w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.booster.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/DSC_2075.jpg?resize=1000%2C667&amp;ssl=1 1000w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.booster.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/DSC_2075.jpg?resize=850%2C567&amp;ssl=1 850w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.booster.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/DSC_2075.jpg?resize=200%2C133&amp;ssl=1 200w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.booster.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/DSC_2075.jpg?w=1920&amp;ssl=1 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-size: 14px;\">Pictures: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/boris_mueller_\/\">Boris M\u00fcller<\/a><\/p>\n<h3 data-start=\"1240\" data-end=\"1279\">The Tages-Anzeiger on the booster<\/h3>\n<p data-start=\"1281\" data-end=\"1693\">On the occasion of our 50th anniversary, the <em data-start=\"1334\" data-end=\"1350\">Tages-Anzeiger<\/em> visited and a detailed <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tagesanzeiger.ch\/booster-zuercher-kultboutique-seit-50-jahren-im-niederdorf-556869789295\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Article<\/strong><\/a> written about the Booster, our history and our daily business.
