About this event
The Kulturbahnhof leg of Berlin's international street theatre festival fills the square outside the main station with jugglers, clowns, acrobats and circus acts. Market stalls and food run from late morning, with the stage programme building through the evening. Weekend afternoons carry a dedicated family circus slot before the main bill takes over. This run ends on 23 August.
