Weekend Events for the Whole Family in Berlin, September 22nd through 24th

Elections

On Sunday, Germany will cast its vote. If you have voting rights, don't hesitate, vote. 2016 was enough of an example, what happens when people decide to snub voting and leave the elections to extremists. 


Furthermore

  • More Funfairs and Street Parties
    • Oktoberfest! The Zentraler Festplatz in Reinickendorf goes all Bavarian at the weekend and all the way to October 15th. Octoberfest is not only all about beer, it is also about rides, stands and other funfair stuff. The funfair is open daily, from 3 pm, for free (the rides cost money, of course). Wednesday is half-priced day and there are fireworks on Saturday.Transport: Bus X21 or M21 from the U7 in  Jacob-Kaiser-Platz 

    • Oktoberfest in Alexanderplatz, until Oct 8th
    • And in Marzahn, Landsberger Allee / Blumberger Damm, for hard-core fans of Cindyisms. 


  • Museums and Casltes
    • Every Saturday: workshops for children (from 2:30 onwards) at the Museum of Technology; Every Sunday, 11:00 and 3:00 - guided tour (in German) in the museum

  • Saturday is Day of the Kindercafe and a few of them will offer activities (list here

  • Music: children concerts at the Philharmonie, on both Sat and Sunday
  • Sports
    • The Berlin Marathon will take place on Sunday. Avoid using a car in the city centre, but otherwise enjoy seeing the runners or participating in the children races (Saturday, 11:00) 


  • Markets and Food: Market in Himmelbeet, Saturday
