Bildungs- und Kulturzentrum PETER EDEL

Event location

Contemporary, historical, and versatile: The PETER EDEL Education and Cultural Center in Berlin-Pankow seamlessly amalgamates these three facets as an event venue. Our objective is to establish forward-thinking event management that unveils new spaces for perspectives, brings people together, and creates shared experiences with lasting impact. Our passion lies in two realms - education and culture - and their realization is our vocation.

At the core of Peter Edel are two banquet halls that harmonize history and modernity, offering a fresh canvas for various event formats. When combined with the expansive inner courtyard, 21 light-filled, flexibly usable workshop rooms, the atrium, and the gastronomy area, exhibitions, conferences, concerts, parties, team events, workshops, and more can be flawlessly curated. A standout feature is the addition of a fireplace room with a terrace providing a serene view of the outdoors. All spaces are available for individual or combined rentals.

As the operators of Peter Edel, we, Kommunales Bildungswerk e. V., offer over 30 years of expertise in event organization. Our adept and well-coordinated team looks forward to energetically supporting you with their know-how in realizing your event concepts. Our collaborators span a wide range of expertise - locally, regionally, and internationally.

Situated in close proximity to a lake (Weißer See) in Berlin-Pankow, PETER EDEL boasts excellent accessibility to the Berlin city center through environmentally friendly public transportation.

We eagerly anticipate your visionary concepts!
