Edition 2025 — Rummel auf der Bucht
Already in 2025, the association Spree:publik transformed the Rummelsburger Bucht into a floating open-air stage with the cultural festival "Rummel auf der Bucht". Concerts, readings, workshops, and discussion rounds offered a full day of programming around water culture, urban development, and Berlin subculture. Admission was free.
Established Summer Event in East Berlin
The 2025 edition confirmed the concept: a one-day, free cultural festival on the water of the Rummelsburger Bucht. Concerts on floating platforms, readings, workshops, and discussion rounds on the future of the bay characterized the day.
Political Background
The festival is also politically motivated: Spree:publik has been advocating for years to preserve the Rummelsburger Bucht as a "Free Port for Art and Culture" and to keep it open against privatization tendencies. The event sees itself as visible proof that water can and should be used for cultural purposes.
Highlights
Concerts on floating platforms; political statement "Free Port for Art and Culture"; free admission.
Prices
Free admission.
