Neighbourhood festival in the Allende quarter of Berlin-Johannisthal
The Allende quarter in the Johannisthal district (Treptow-Köpenick borough) is one of Berlin's largest prefabricated housing estates in the southeast: built between 1971 and 1981, named after Chilean President Salvador Allende, it is now home to around 17,000 people. The KIEZKLUB Allende at Salvador-Allende-Straße 89 is a central social institution here – a municipal community centre run by the district office, offering sports, music, dance, language courses, yoga, and creative workshops.
Treptow-Köpenick has a total of eleven municipal KIEZKLUBs. Each of them celebrates its own summer festival between June and September, staggered throughout the summer so that neighbours can also visit other KIEZKLUBs. The summer festival in the Allende quarter is the event organised by the club at Salvador-Allende-Straße – with a stage programme featuring its own club activities (dance groups, choirs), live music, children's theatre, and refreshments from coffee to bratwurst.
The programme is primarily drawn from the club's own courses and the Berlin music scene: regularly featuring Berlin singer-songwriters like Leona Heine, local music groups like Mix 21, as well as the KIEZKLUB's own dance formations and the children's theatre „Woffelpantoffel“. Around this, there are creative and handicraft workshops for children, games, and entertainment for all age groups.
The summer festival is free to attend and is primarily aimed at residents of the Allende quarter and the surrounding residential areas in Johannisthal. Those who attended the first summer festival in 2022, when the club newly opened, helped to set up the event – since then, it has become an established annual fixture in the neighbourhood calendar. Anyone wanting to discover a side of Berlin far from the tourist routes will find it here.
The 2026 edition will follow the established format of recent years: an afternoon centred around the KIEZKLUB Allende, with a stage, food and drink, and activities in the courtyard and surrounding areas of the Allende quarter. The KIEZKLUB team confirms the festival in the event programme; the specific date (usually a Saturday in August or early September) will be announced a few weeks in advance.
Classic programme elements include the club's dance formations and choirs, Berlin singer-songwriters and bands from southern Berlin, the children's theatre „Woffelpantoffel“, as well as creative workshops and play stations for children. Food and drinks will be offered at cost price, and admission is free.
The date and artist lineup for 2026 have not yet been published at the time of this research. Expected programme elements based on past events:
