Events for Families in Berlin, October 30th - November 1st, including Halloween

Halloween 2015 in Berlin

So many places to celebrate, at least relative to the fact that Halloween is not native to Germany. 

• Activities are being offered in "Haus Natur und Umwelt" which is located in the Wuhlheide Park (same area with the FEZ). They will offer pumpkin carving and other autumn craft. Kürbisfest und Bastelspaß, Sat, 10 - 6 pm, Haus Natur und Umwelt, An der Wuhlheide 169, 12459 Berlin (Trams 27, 63 or 67 till Freizeit- und Erholungszentrum or S3 to Wuhlheide), EUR 1.5 for adults, EUR 1 for children under 5 

• Another place which will be celebrating is the Tierpark, which will have a large Halloween party from 4 pm on Saturday.

• The Schönhauser Allee Arkaden will offer indoor activities from the 26th till the 31st, including of course sales of costumes and candies. Then, on Saturday, from 6 pm, there will be a parade with costumes and lampions, towards Helmholzplatz

• Another shopping centre to celebrate the spirit of Halloween (which is all about shopping for candy and costumes anyway), is the Forum Steglitz (Schlossstr. 1, near the Walther-Schreiber-Platz, U9). From 11:00 there will be stands with crafts, make-up, candies, etc. 

• The Zombie Walk is almost a Berlin tradition. It usually starts from the Rote Kloster in Mitte (near the Alexa Shopping Centre), beginning at 5pm
