Festival | 48 Stunden Neukölln

48h Neukölln - Kunstfestival 28, 29, 30 Juni 2024

Exciting, open, courageous and free.

This is 48 Stunden Neukölln. An art festival that offers artists of all disciplines places to develop and present their art for 48 hours every year! Here in Neukölln, the district full of possibilities, diverse people, colourful locations and an unbelievably diverse art scene, there is a lot to discover!

But keep in mind:

48 Stunden Neukölln is a low-budget festival that is financed purely through funding. Organised by a dedicated festival management duo, it acts as a free platform for artists. This enables all participants, whether professional or amateur, to present their art to a wide audience, raise their profile and gain valuable experience. You also become part of an inclusive, large and dynamic network.
