Festival 2025
This time Neukölln opens its doors from the 27th of June 2025 from 7 pm to the 29th of June 2025 at 7 pm and once again invites you to discover art in a wide variety of places and explore the district together.
The theme for next year's edition has been finalised and will be published shortly. But it all depends on securing funding for next year. Once this is in place, the application phase can begin again.
Take part
Apply as an official festival entry
If you would like to take part in 48 Stunden Neukölln as an artist or group with a project on the festival theme, you can apply here. The plan is to open the application platform from 18.11.2024 to 05.01.2025.
Anyone can apply and participate, provided that the works are related to the festival theme and do not violate the code of a non-violent, anti-racist and anti-discriminatory attitude.
After the application deadline, all submitted projects will be reviewed by our jury and a decision on participation will be made. After that, the successful applications can be completed with the event dates.
Registration for open formats
Once again this year, we would like to offer open formats in addition to the themed part of the festival. These formats serve to strengthen and present the Neukölln art scene. They are open to professional, year-round venues focussing on art and culture. The registration deadline for open formats will be in April 2025.
Artistic works, rehearsal and production spaces, such as open studios and co-working spaces, can thus be shown to a wide audience as part of 48 Stunden Neukölln. Galleries, studios, shops, associations, local residents or other diverse institutions - anyone from Neukölln can register for 48 Stunden Neukölln with a programme that does not have to be themed and become part of the festival.
All you need to do to take part is register, not apply. You must apply for any necessary permits yourself. Open formats are listed in the 48 Stunden Neukölln programme with times and address.
Registration as a venue
If you have a venue in Neukölln and would like to make it available to one or more artists as a venue, simply register as a venue.
Whether gallery, pub, bakery or supermarket. Anyone who wants to support the festival and its artists and thus be a part of 48 Stunden Neukölln is urgently needed and very welcome. All you have to do is create a venue.
