Kreuzberg-Festival 2025

In the organizer's words:

Berlin, get ready!

From June 27 to 29, 2025, Kreuzbergstraße will once again be transformed into a vibrant hotspot of music, art and culinary delights. The Kreuzberg Festival is celebrating its 31st anniversary and once again promises an unforgettable open-air experience in the heart of the capital!

Three days, three stages, countless beats

Kreuzberg stands for diversity - and this is also reflected in the line-up. Whether jazz, blues, world music, hip-hop, rock, reggae or electro beats - over 100 artists will provide a thrilling music program on three stages. A special highlight: the new electro stage brings Berlin club vibes directly to the street! Presented by Aperol Spritz.

For world music fans, the stage of the renowned Kreuzberg record label Piranha is a must. International artists who reflect Berlin's musical diversity perform here. Friday kicks off with the Kreuzberg Musical Action, which brings talented up-and-coming musicians to the stage.

Festival times:

• Friday, June 27: 16:00 - 23:00
• Saturday, June 28: 12:00 - 23:00
• Sunday, June 29: 12:00 - 20:00

More than music - street market & food variety

In addition to the sounds of the city, there is plenty to discover: around 120 market stalls offer handmade design, fashion, art and lifestyle products. Culinary delights will be just as colorful - there will be specialties from all over the world at around 50 food stalls.

"Not only our artists are international - our traders and restaurateurs also bring the spirit of Kreuzberg to the streets," says the organizer Kreuzberg-Festival e.V.

A festival for the neighborhood - and the whole city

The Kreuzberg Festival is more than just a street festival - it is a tribute to Berlin's culture, diversity and creative attitude to life.

District Mayor Clara Herrmann emphasizes: "This festival brings people together, creates encounters and shows how lively Kreuzberg is."

From the beginnings to a mega festival

What began in 1994 as the "Bergmannstraßenfest" has grown into Berlin's largest open-air music festival. Since 2019, it has been taking place in Kreuzbergstraße - with even more program, more variety and more heart for the district.

2025 will be bigger, louder and more colorful than ever before - be part of it!
