Festival for Democracy and Tolerance – Treptow-Köpenick

The 2025 edition followed the established daily rhythm: opening in the early afternoon, continuous stage program, panels on current district political issues, and a dense stand area with trade union, church, cultural, and anti-racist organizations. The atmosphere was focused, family-friendly, and politically aware – a combination that has characterized this neighbourhood festival for over two decades.

In 2025, Treptow-Köpenick once again presented itself as a district that actively makes democratic engagement visible. The festival remained an important date in Berlin's festival calendar and a point of reference for similar alliances in other districts and federal states.
