New Year's Eve In Berlin

Last year more than one million people celebrated on the 2 km long party mile between the ,Brandenburger Tor' and the ,Siegessäule'. Live bands, top DJ's, national and international show acts on different stages guaranteed a brilliant party. This years top acts are: from 6:30 pm, Michael Mind, beFour, Marquess, Hot Banditoz, Monrose, Die Firma, Lexington Bridge, Groove Coverage, Lemon Ice, Lutricia McNeal, Room 2012, Rapsoul and Empty Trash. At 10 pm starts the live show of the German TV channel RTL II. At midnight, right in time for the spectacular fireworks, the acts are once again on stage. Stalls with food from all over the world and different light animations line the streets. A special highlight certainly is the fireworks at midnight to welcome the New Year. Gigantic pyrotechnic coordinated with music creates an unforgettable experience.

Last year more than one million people celebrated New Year's Eve at the Brandenburg Gate until the early hours. The first official New Years Eve party took place in Berlin in 1995. Through the years it developed into the biggest open air New Year's Eve party in the world, where people celebrated the New Year in a peaceful atmosphere. And the best: it is for free.
