Pack your rave shoes: On the night of Thursday, November 12, through Friday, November 13, 2026, as part of Berlin Freedom Week, the BVG will transform a top-secret location on its network into a dance floor. From 12:00 a.m. to 3:00 a.m., a select few will party right in the Berlin underground. If you want to attend the Secret Rave, you’ll need luck in the raffle, because the strictly limited spots are available exclusively through an online raffle.
What the BVG is planning for Berlin’s subway network
Normally, the yellow fleet reliably takes you home after a night out at the club—this time, it’s bringing the party right to you. Regular service continues uninterrupted, while away from the familiar platforms, the bass booms through the tunnels. Together with the guests, the transit company is sending a clear message in support of Berlin’s club culture, freedom, and diversity.
Two trance heavyweights on the decks
Musically, things get right down to business. None other than Marlon Hoffstadt, aka Daddy Trance, and rising star Funk Tribu will be taking the decks. Expect a driving sound that harmonizes perfectly with the raw industrial architecture of the underground shafts.
Here’s how to snag a spot on the secret guest list
There are no tickets for sale for the Secret Rave: You can enter the raffle via the social media links of the BVG or the DJs funktribu or marlonhoffstadt. Winners will be notified by email on Thursday morning of the meeting point, from which everyone will travel together by subway to the secret station.
You can simply take public transit directly to the meeting point, which winners will be notified of via email, since the group’s onward journey is organized via a special train. If you’re driving, it’s best to leave your car at home or park at a P+R lot, since finding a parking spot at Berlin subway stations at night is purely a matter of luck.
