About the Berlin Festival of Lights

See the city's landmarks illuminated at dusk

For 20 years, the Festival of Lights has been illuminating Berlin's iconic landmarks for ten days in mid-autumn. Over 70 of the city's famous monuments are lit with radiant beams, special projections and other innovative technologies, in brilliant displays conceptualised by local and international artists. Illuminations begin around 7:00pm and go on til midnight, shining on landmarks including Berlin Dom, Funkturm and Brandenburg Gate. The 20th Berlin Festival of Lights takes place between 4–13 October 2024 under the theme 'Celebrating Freedom', showing through light art the beauty of self-determination, free development, and the freedom that makes Berlin a vibrant city. Our special Festival of Lights Big Bus Night Tour will give you top-deck views of the illuminations and unmissable photo opportunities, with live guides sharing facts and stories about Berlin and the Light Festival throughout the journey.
