Weekend Events for the Whole Family in Berlin, Oct 14th - 16th 2016

Festival of Lights

This is the last weekend of this year's Festival of Lights and you can use the opportunity to see the attractions with special light installations. This does not only include the immediate city centre, but also the Märkisches Viertel, for example. 




German Comic-Con 

The German comic-con is rather a new thing, imitating the American phenomenon. It seems, however, that the organisers have invested in "real" stars coming over and all in all a satisfying event for comics/sci-fi lovers. 

Tickets are quite pricey and can be expected, but kids under 12 get in for free with a paying adult. 
Comic Con Germany - Sat/Sun at the Messe Exhibition Grounds



Gardens of the World : Celebration

The Gardens of the World are about the expand in size and double up with the addition of the International Gardening Exhibition in April. Until then, they are closing to prepare the ground and you're all invited to the farewell party, which will also include a glimpse in the new gardens.
