Tegel as a summer meeting point

Tegel — the northwestern district in Reinickendorf — is home to Tegel Airport (closed 2020), Lake Tegel, the Reinickendorf School for Aviation Anthropology, and the popular Gorkistraße pedestrian zone. This very pedestrian zone becomes a festival area for three days in the summer: the Tegeler Sommer, one of the most established Berlin neighbourhood festivals outside the S-Bahn ring.

Neighbourhood festival format with live music

The Tegeler Sommer follows the classic Berlin neighbourhood festival format: closed street, stages along the pedestrian zone, food trucks and snack stands with international street food, a beer stand with Berlin breweries (Berliner Pilsner, Berliner Kindl, Schultheiss). Family highlights: children's carousel, wheel of fortune, face painting. The live music plays on several stages — cover bands, local Berlin acts, popular mainstream genres.

Reinickendorf — the northwestern district

Reinickendorf, with its districts Tegel, Borsigwalde, Reinickendorf-Ortsteil, Wittenau, Heiligensee, Frohnau, and Märkisches Viertel, is a diverse outer district of Berlin. Industrial heritage (Borsig-Werke), large housing estates (Märkisches Viertel), and villa districts (Frohnau, Heiligensee) alternate. The Tegeler Sommer is one of the few neighbourhood festivals that appeals to the entire district across district boundaries — residents from all over northern Berlin come to Gorkistraße. In 2026, Reinickendorf is also the partner district of the Fête de la Musique — the Tegeler Sommer coincides almost directly with the Fête and can be used as an extension of the district's music stages.
