Time Warp is an annual electronic music festival in Mannheim, Germany.
The festival was introduced in 1994 on the other side of the river Rhine in Ludwigshafen. As a cultural festival, the main sponsor was TDK Marketing Europe from 2005 to 2007. The new sponsor is Cosmopop.
In 2002, the organizers initiated cooperation with the beverage company Storm which is exclusively served at similar festivals.
2005 saw the launch of three separated festival divisions: blue for main event, red for Labelcamp and green, an area for miscellaneous events and presentations.
Earlier festival locations included Prague, Berlin and also Bremen, although most took place in Mannheim. The next Time Warp Festival will take place on 4 December 2010 Sporthallen Zuid in Amsterdam with live sets by Sven Väth, Laurent Garnier, Loco Dice, Karotte and more.

The terms time warp, space warp, and time-space warp are commonly used in science fiction. They sometimes refer to Einstein's theory that time and space form a continuum that bends, folds, or warps from the observer's point of view, relative to such factors as movement or gravitation. They are also used in reference to more fantastic notions of discontinuities or other irregularities in spacetime not based on real-world science.

Time Warp is a popular science-themed television program produced for the Discovery Channel in the United States, in which Jeff Lieberman, an MIT scientist, teacher, and artist, along with high speed camera expert Matt Kearney, use their high speed camera to examine everyday occurrences and singular talents.
Time Warp captured common everyday events and viewed them again in slow motion to uncover the many principles of physics. To do so, they examined things such as a drop of water, explosions (many of them), gunshots, ballet dancing, cornflour, shallow water diving, X games and sometimes some uncanny things like piercing one's cheek or standing on blades.
The high speed cameras were used at as low as 500 frame/second for capturing how dogs drink to as high as 40,000 frame/second for capturing bullets, breaking glass, etc. Speeds above 20,000 frame/second were shot in black and white as the amount of light needed to record in black and white is significantly lower than what's needed to record in color.
