As you can see, last year I had the opportunity to visit Berlin and I always love hearing news from this fabulous city, including the latest communication about spending Autumn in Berlin.
Now although Berlin is still experiencing hot weather, the shortening days indicate that the city life will soon move indoors – to cosy cafés, theatres and exciting art galleries.
Find out how visitors and Berliners enjoy Berlin to the fullest during the autumn season.
A Great Time To Visit
It is especially the vibrant food and cultural scene that make the city so exciting at this time of year. Coming up are highlights such as the Festival of Lights, as well as long-awaited new openings and musical performances. The Jazz Festival, which celebrates its 60th edition at the beginning of November, will once again present a variety of international musicians.
Not to be missed are the upcoming exhibitions at the Berlinische Galerie and the Museum Barberini Potsdam, showing the works of Edvard Munch. Tickets are already on sale.
When in Berlin, you should not skip a visit to one of the wellness oases in the middle of the city or even stay overnight in a hotel with a first-class spa. Compared to other European metropolises, Berlin’s hotel industry offers visitors tremendous value for money.
City Of Photography
Berlin is gaining even more attraction in the world of photographic art. In addition to the renowned exhibition spaces of C/O Berlin and the Museum of Photography, the city will receive another enhancement in September through Fotografiska.
A diverse cultural program is planned, which will not only include photo exhibitions but also connect with the historical tradition of the former “Kunsthaus Tacheles”
New Concert Season
The upcoming season kicks off with many premieres, impressive performances, and exciting festivals. The music isn’t limited to just traditional concert halls – for instance, the Komische Oper Berlin will perform in Hangar 1 of the former Tempelhof Airport.
The new programme of the German Symphony Orchestra allocates more works of previously overlooked female composers.
Food Festivals
The venues of the gourmet festival eat! berlin are just as unique and diverse as the culinary creations themselves. You can dine in places like the ASTOR Film Lounge, Futurium, or the Theater im Palais. The “House of Food” at Bikini Berlin, as well as professional cooking events during the Berlin Food Week, encourage creative, sustainable, locally produced meals.
Wellness Oasis
In and around Berlin it is easy to include a wellness day. Relax on sauna boats, rooftop terraces, in thermal baths… Alternatively, look for hotels such as the Grand Hyatt Berlin with its Club Olympus Spa & Fitness, or the the Ritz Carlton. Special experiences like the “Midnight Swim” in the historic pool of Hotel Oderberger, and the vabali Spa wellness resort, make the options even more appealing.
