Traditional festival with Rock'n'Roll and street food on the medieval village green
Buckow is one of Berlin's most surprising neighborhoods: a village green (Anger) dating back to the 13th century, surrounded by the urban sprawl, yet remarkably well-preserved in its original form with a fieldstone church and farmsteads. The Dorfanger Alt-Buckow is the village's winding green main street – and this is exactly where the Buckower Dorfangerfest takes place over three summer days.
The festival is organized annually in July by the promoter Hauptstadtkultur. The village green stage is the centerpiece, featuring live music: DJ sets kick off the day, followed by local bands, dance music, Rock'n'Roll revues, and Schlager stars. The 'Anger-Höfe' (courtyards around the stage) become a courtyard music stage – Jazz, Reggae, Blues, and Country in a small, intimate atmosphere. Children's carousels, games, and food stalls are spread across the lawn.
Buckow is located in the Neukölln district on the southern outskirts of Berlin, right next to the large housing estates of Gropiusstadt and Buckow-Süd. The Dorfanger Alt-Buckow is considered one of the best-preserved medieval village green ensembles in Berlin – the Alt-Buckow village church dates back to the 13th century and is a protected monument. The Dorfangerfest is the annual affirmation that this district does not want to lose its village roots.
In 2026, the festival will again follow the established format: three days of stage and village green with live music, Rock'n'Roll shows, family carousels, intimate courtyard music, and beer and cocktail stands around the fieldstone church. The 2026 program will be published by the promoter hauptstadtkultur.berlin a few weeks before the festival.
The Buckower Dorfangerfest 2026 takes place from July 10 to 12, 2026 on the Dorfanger Alt-Buckow, 12349 Berlin-Neukölln. Promoter: Hauptstadtkultur. The detailed 2026 stage program will be published by the promoter a few weeks before the festival; the structure has followed the same pattern for years (stage on the village green + music in the courtyard) – the 2025 edition serves as a reference:
Free admission. Food and drinks are paid for directly at the stands. By car via the A113 (exit Gropiusstadt), public transport is most convenient via U7 Rudow + Bus M11. Parking around the village green is very limited – public transport is recommended.
Take the U-Bahn (subway) line U7 to Rudow, then bus M11 to Alt-Buckow. Alternatively, take the S-Bahn (urban rail) line S45 to Buckower Chaussee + bus M44. By car, take the Bundesautobahn 113 (exit Gropiusstadt) – parking around the village green is scarce during the festival.
Free admission to the entire festival. Food and drinks are paid for directly at the stands. The main stage and the courtyard music run in parallel.
