Spring is just around the corner —and with it come not only the first flowers in Berlin’s parks, but also the most eagerly awaited album releases of the year. At the top of the list: “Kiss All The Time. Disco, Occasionally.”Harry Styles has dominated the music headlines since the beginning of the year, first with the announcement of his fourth studio album for March 6 and shortly thereafter with the confirmation of his worldwide tour dates. Before he takes over the big stadiums in the summer, there’s a special surprise for Berlin fans: the former One Direction member is hosting exclusive album listening parties in Berlin – and in 40 cities worldwide.
Here’s how you can hear the album within the next two weeks
After Styles held listening parties in Berlin for his single “Aperture” (including at Rough Trade) earlier this year, this event format is now returning for the entire album. He confirmed on Instagram that these “secret parties” will take place later this month.
The events officially start on Wednesday, February 18. This means that a handful of lucky fans in Berlin will be able to hear the new album in its entirety more than two weeks before its official release .
To be there, fans had to visit Harry Styles’ official “We Belong Together” website and answer the crucial question: “How do you think it will feel to listen to the album?” Those who were selected will receive invitations to the Berlin party on Monday, February 16.So if you don’t have an email in your inbox yet, you’ll have to wait until March 6.

While the listening party is set, the situation for live concerts in Germany this summer remains exciting, but sobering for now. Berlin does not appear on the official schedule for the “Together, Together” tour for 2026. The nearest shows will take place in Amsterdam in May and in Londonin June/July.
But the rumor mill in Berlin is buzzing: after Harry was spotted at the Berlin Marathon last year, there are persistent reports of a possible residency at the Olympic Stadium in 2027. So it’s quite possible that this month’s listening party is just a precursor to something much bigger in the capital.
