Programme BESTIVAL 2025
The speakers at BESTIVAL 2025 in Berlin are (inter)national thought leaders,successful entrepreneurs, creative visionaries, and industry-shaping personalities. Through their keynotes, panels, and interactive workshops, they not only provide valuable insights but also inspire a shift in thinking. Whether it's best practices from the sustainable event industry or diversity and inclusion in the event sector – current and impactful topics take center stage here.
The speakers are not only on stage but also actively involved in networking. In a relaxed atmosphere, valuable conversations and new collaborations emerge.
BESTIVAL kicks off on 3rd July at Alte Münze– a creative event venue in Berlin-Mitte. The former minting facility provides space for art, culture, and events and represents the sustainable repurposing of historic urban spaces.
We will round off the first day at the Long Berlin Night at Holzmarkt – a creative urban quarter on the banks of the Spree. Covering 12,000 m², Holzmarkt offers space for culture, events, creative projects, and urban nature.
At BESTIVAL, you’ll experience a diverse line-up of live acts and artists – from powerful choral singing to international club sounds. The Heart Chor e.V. brings raw emotion to the stage with its powerful voices. DJ Annie O, known for spinning at the world-famous Berlin KitKat Club, transports the city’s iconic nightlife straight to Alte Münze. Artist Douniah blends Black American music with the rhythms of North African Gnawa – a truly unique sound. And if anyone knows how to create a musical vibe on Berlin’s streets, it’s singer and guitarist Justin McConville. As a street performer, he brings real festival flair to BESTIVAL. Eva Be is a fixture of Berlin’s underground scene and takes us on a journey through her extensive vinyl collection with soulful DJ sets featuring dub, reggae, and Latin grooves.
