Celebrate National Workers day (we forget who invented it…) Berlin style: street parties take over Kreuzberg, riot police line the borders, music EVERYWHERE, locals come on to the streets to sell yummy food and cocktails, we all party till the police close in.
It can get a little bit dangerous so try not to get too wasted, don’t shout at the police and stay clear of the political demonstrations (unless that’s your thing in which case, good for you!).
Best to go and party on the streets during the daylight hours then head home, or to a club if you’re still buzzing, leaving the darkness to the guys in bandanas and hoodies.
Aim for the streets around Kottbusser Tor and Gorlitzer Park – though don’t excpect to be able to rely on the public transport, it’s usually shut down by lunch.
Alternatively head to Tempelhof for a more chilled, but no less fun, experience in the old air field there.
