19th Easter Knights' Festival at Spandau Berlin

Simply forget about everyday life, shake off those winter-stiff limbs, and immerse yourself in the entertaining side of the Middle Ages. Historical music will fill the air, and jugglers will perform incredible feats.

From April 4th to 6th, 2026, from 10:00 AM to 7:00 PM each day, market vendors, knights, jugglers, acrobats, and minstrels await the public with market stalls and amusements.

Experience the kings of minstrels, Corvus Corax!

Enjoy a mug of mead or beer and savory or sweet delicacies. After your refreshments, test your skill and accuracy with crossbow and archery. Young people can enjoy hand-operated carousels and the Ferris wheel, and try their luck at mouse roulette. Jousting tournaments on horseback and real knightly battles thrill young and old alike. The audience cheers on their favorites with shouts of joy and enthusiastic applause!

A variety of artisans and merchants offer their wares. And once the crowd has had its fill of food and entertainment at the large market, the numerous taverns, and the stages, all the exhibitions of the Berlin Citadel (except the Bat Cellar) can be visited during their opening hours at no extra charge.

The grand finale is a mystical, fiery equestrian show with music, performance, and acrobatics!
