BERLIN SCIENCE WEEK
BERLIN'S FESTIVAL FOR SCIENCE & SOCIETY
We bring science to the heart of cultural life.
Every November, we transform Berlin into a festival of scientific ideas. As one of Europe’s leading science festivals, Berlin Science Week connects science and the public by bringing cutting-edge research to the heart of cultural life. With a diverse programme of over 300 events, organised in our two central Festival Hubs and numerous locations across the city, we create a lively platform for the scientific community and the public to explore how science shapes our world.


THEME 2025: BEYOND NOW
Celebrating 10 Years of Berlin Science Week!
The world as we knew it has come undone. What once felt unshakable is now falling apart and what lies ahead remains undefined. In a time of rapid transformation, we turn to science for guidance and inspiration. As we celebrate a decade of Berlin Science Week, we look not back, but forward. With this year’s festival theme, BEYOND NOW, we ask: how can science help us break through the escalating urgencies of the present and open new perspectives for the future?
