During the Festival of Lights in October, Berlin transforms itself into a city of lights: the Brandenburg Gate, the TV Tower, the Berliner Dom Cathedral, the Funkturm Radio tower and many other buildings and squares will be dazzling with the colourful light projections each night.
Numerous artists from home and abroad will present building façades as canvases for light installations and projections to create an extraordinary cityscape during the Festival of Lights. Special tours by bus, bicycle, taxi and boat are convenient ways to experience as many of the illuminated buildings as possible.
Events during the Festival of Lights
Art functions and events will also be taking place during the Festival. For example, during the Open Door Night light will be shed on what goes on behind the scenes in the buildings lit up for the Festival. And the Jazz in den Ministergärten music festival will put the state liaison offices for Brandenburg, Hesse, Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania, Lower Saxony, Rhineland-Palatinate, Saarland and Schleswig-Holstein in an unfamiliar light.
Light tours with boats, buses, carriages, hot air balloon or limo Visitors will be able to view the many light installations for the Festival of Lights on their own or by taking a guided tour – on foot, by bus, in an illuminated bicycle taxi, from the water on board a boat or like a star in a limo. Romantic carriage rides will also be on offer as will a view from 150 metres over the city in a Berlin Hi-Flyer helium balloon.
