Edition 2025 — Osterfeuer Gatow

In 2025, the Friends' Association of the Berlin Gatow Volunteer Fire Brigade once again invited visitors to the large Easter bonfire at Buchwaldzeile / Straße 265 on Easter Saturday. Several thousand visitors from Spandau, Berlin, and Brandenburg came for the traditional bonfire with an Easter egg hunt, food, and a social gathering. Free admission.

Established Traditional Event

The Gatow Easter Bonfire 2025 followed the proven format: opening in the afternoon, Easter egg hunt for children, lighting of the bonfire by the fire brigade in the late afternoon, followed by a social gathering until the evening.

South Spandau in Spring Mood

The grounds at Buchwaldzeile, framed by forest and fields in the south of Spandau, offered, as always, an atmosphere that felt almost rural by Berlin standards. Several thousand visitors from Berlin and Brandenburg made the Easter bonfire the most visible spring tradition in Spandau.

Highlights

Traditional bonfire in Gatow; Easter egg hunt; lighting by the fire brigade.

Prices

Free admission. Food and drinks on-site.
