Berlin-Gatow Airfield Festival / Reservist Day

The 2025 edition took place on a September weekend at the former RAF Gatow airfield in Berlin's Spandau district. The Bundeswehr, the Reservist Association, and the Military History Museum offered a broad program: flight demonstrations with historic aircraft, a large IPMS model building exhibition in Hangar 5, a Bundeswehr field kitchen serving pea soup, and a children's program.

With free admission, the festival has attracted a diverse audience for years: families from Berlin and Brandenburg, aviation enthusiasts, reservists, collectors, and model builders. The unique location on the historic airfield with 155 exhibited aircraft makes the event one of Berlin's most unusual Volksfeste (popular festivals).
