Berlin Atonal 2023: First Full Edition in Four Years


Berlin Atonal returns to Kraftwerk Berlin from 7-17th September 2023 for its first full edition in over four years. The festival extends to cover 11 days and two full weekends, expanding to allow a wider and fuller selection of new commissioned works, world premiere performances, artistic interventions and aftershow programmes.

Berlin Atonal originally took place across various venues throughout the city between 1982 and 1990, fusing emergent experimental music with Europe’s progressive art scene and helping to cement the reputation of Berlin as ground-zero for forward thinking experimental culture. In 2013, the festival was relaunched under new directorship and moved to its new singular home in the 8.000m2 former powerplant in Kreuzberg, Kraftwerk. It has since earned its reputation as the leading European festival for the presentation of A/V shows, site-specific installations, world premiere commissions and collaborations in music, performance and video.

The first three ticket types are now released for the festival. The Full Festival Pass (€300 + fees) allows unrestricted access to the Kraftwerk complex for the duration of the 11 day event. Additionally two more ticket types allow access specifically to the weekend programmes.

Day tickets and further programme information will be released at the beginning of July.
