Nature, outdoor activities, festivals —that’s exactly what we need right now with this weather. Instead of sitting at home, we’re drawn outside to enjoy the mild temperatures. Spring in and around Berlin has a lot to offer: The blossoms are slowly coming into view; while the March daffodils are just reaching their peak, tulips and cherry blossoms are already in the starting blocks. You won’t have to wait much longer, because Brandenburg’s largest tulip market begins this week, and Berlin’s biggest cherry blossom festival follows in just a few weeks. But if you’re already in the mood for an event that combines the beauty of blossoms with entertainment, we have the ultimate tip for you: From March 27 to April 19, the Britzer Baumblüte 2026 will take place at Gutspark Britz in Berlin’s Neukölln district.
The festival runs from March 27 to April 19 and is free to visit . Opening hours are generally from 2:00 PM to 10:00 PM Monday through Saturday; on Sundays and holidays, the grounds open as early as around 12:00 PM. A special highlight: In 2026, the Britzer Baumblüte will celebrate its 70th anniversary, making it one of the city’s most traditional spring festivals.
The Britzer Baumblüte combines a classic carnival atmosphere with the spirit of spring in a green setting. Visitors can look forward to classic rides like bumper cars, a breakdance attraction, and a family roller coaster. The lineup is rounded out by shooting galleries and various game booths —a total of around 40 carnival vendors will be on site. The stage program is also a key part of the event: From Wednesday through Sunday, live bands and solo artists perform , providing entertainment for all ages. The entire program is free and runs alongside the fairground activities.
Culinary-wise, the Britzer Baumblüte offers everything you’d expect from a classic folk festival. A beer garden with seating invites you to linger, while numerous stands offer typical snacks like Thuringian grilled sausage, crêpes, or sweet treats. The atmosphere is generally relaxed and family-friendly and feels significantly less touristy than many other major Berlin events.
Around Easter, the program will be supplemented with additional highlights. On Easter Sunday and Easter Monday, the Easter Bunny will hand out eggs to children and be available for photos. These activities make the event particularly appealing to families .
