Rocktreff 2026

Rocktreff, an integral part of youth and cultural work in the district since 1984, is one of Berlin’s largest non-commercial open-air rock festivals. Over the course of three days, 16 up-and-coming bands from Berlin and all over Germany—spanning genres from rock to punk to metal—will perform on the main stage at the Mariendorf Volkspark. Admission is free!

Rocktreff is organized by the Tempelhof-Schöneberg Youth Welfare Office in close collaboration with the volunteer team at CPYE e.V., which has been passionately dedicated to promoting youth and music for decades. The event is also supported by many local sponsors as well as a large team of volunteers. Stefan Böltes, the chair of the District Assembly, is once again serving as patron this year, as is tradition.

In addition to music and festival vibes, visitors can look forward to a family-friendly program on Saturday and Sunday featuring the Spielfest, with information booths and

hands-on activities for children and teens. The Rocktreff is thus a place of exchange, diversity, and intergenerational connection. With real music, real emotions—and it’s all completely free!
