Overview

The premiere of the Jerk Festival Berlin – Caribbean Culture Fest – took place in 2025 at Beach Neukölln. First edition of the format, featuring Jamaican Jerk Food, Reggae and Dancehall live acts, DJ sets, and stalls from Caribbean small businesses in Berlin. Organizer: Jerk Festival Berlin.

The 2025 premiere established the festival as a culinary-cultural diaspora event with a clear Jamaican profile. The venue was Beach Neukölln; the program combined food, music, and cultural stalls in an all-day open-air format. The objective – to connect the Jamaican and Caribbean diaspora in Berlin while also inviting a broader Berlin audience to experience Caribbean culture – was openly communicated by the organizers.

With the success of the premiere, the organizers planned a sequel as "Vol. II" for 2026. The second edition conceptually builds on the insights from the first, with an expected 5000 visitors – a significantly expanded format compared to the premiere. Detailed set lists and exhibitors from the 2025 edition are no longer fully publicly archived.
