+ The history of Die Wiesenburg continues… and we would like to celebrate it together with you
On the first edition of the festival in 2016, we hosted 400 people per day and the success motivated us to continue the organisation of the festival with a desire of making it on a bit bigger scale. This year a two-days festival is funded by Musicboard Berlin GmbH and will be supported by the team of Radio Fritz. The festival will take place on 9th and 10th September 2017 on our charming grounds of the former homeless shelter from 1896, also known from famous film scenes by Fritz Lang and other filmmakers.
Part of the program will be an exclusive selection of newcommer bands from format of radio show ‘Unsigned’ | Radio Fritz (Prada Meinhoff, Pretty Mery K and RÁN) and live concerts of headliners like ‘Tanga Elektra’, ‘The Egg’ (UK) and ‘Based4’ (members of Seeed, Marteria, TheKrauts). We are as well planing to project a film from 1929 that was shot here in Wiesenburg accompanied with the live vinyl DJ set of ‘2 Plattenspieler’ and we invited the really special film crew of ‘Kalmak Canac – The Film’ to spicy the night and show us their master piece, an amazing short film Made in Berlin.
Furthermore we will hold for the whole weekend the acrobatic theater of the fantastic ‘Schroekleloecks’, special guided tours of the Wiesenburg, art exhibitions and acoustic concerts with Jesus Herrera Guitar and QuiQue Escamilla.
At the invitation of the association ‘Die Wiesenburg NGO ‘, representatives of Berlin politic, culture and the art’s scene will be appearing for a podium discussion on the theme: ‘City of the Future 3.0: What is Berlin’s artistic and cultural future in the area of conflict between urban development?’
Drinks will be served by Café Pförtner and Studio8. The ‘Han & Ahn Food Truck’ will prepare authentic Korean food and the famous Wedding ‘Ice Mobile will sweeten the day with handmade ice cream.
