Berlin celebrates freedom: First Freedom Week planned for the fall of the Berlin Wall!
Something is happening in Berlin: The German capital is planning the first “Freedom Week” this year on the anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall on November 9th. The city wants to send a powerful signal for freedom, peace and democracy. An exciting program awaits visitors, which is supported by numerous initiatives. The Governing Mayor Kai Wegner (CDU) will not only take over the patronage, but also lead the project presentation. That's what she reports South German newspaper.
But what exactly is on the agenda? Freedom Week will offer a dazzling array of events including conferences, workshops, concerts, exhibitions, plays and city tours. Contemporary witnesses will also share their stories. Guests are expected from all over the world, especially from countries that suffer from autocratic rule. This international format is intended to promote exchange and make the voice of freedom audible.
A highlight: The Berlin Freedom Conference
Particular attention is paid to the Berlin Freedom Conference, which will take place on November 10, 2025. Leading voices from politics, civil society, business, media and culture gather here. The aim is to forge new alliances to defend freedom and promote democratic change in unfree societies. The organizers of this important conference are visitBerlin, the Axel Springer Freedom Foundation and the World Liberty Congress.
The event is also supported by the LOTTO Foundation Berlin. The broad commitment underlines the importance that Berlin attaches to the revival of peace and freedom. Further dates for Freedom Week will follow, which will be published in the near future, so that those interested can look forward to an all-round successful event.
Whether workshops, cultural performances or city tours – Freedom Week offers a platform for dialogue about freedom, diversity and democracy. Berlin is well on its way to not only celebrating these topics, but also spreading them beyond its borders. A good plan that serves as both a reminder and an encouragement.
