What events take place in Berlin in late September?

In late September, Berlin combines festivities with cultural buzz. The Berliner Oktoberfest kicks off, making the city pulse until mid-October. Musikfest Berlin ends on September 23, as does Berlin Art Week, dedicated to contemporary art. On the market side, the must-see Kollwitzplatz and Winterfeldtmarkt run year-round, perfect for a local souvenir. Plenty to pair your marathon with a true Berlin immersion.
