Wine Spring

Together with small wineries from popular German wine regions, as well as culinary and arts-and-crafts offerings from Berlin and the surrounding area, the Wine Spring returns to the idyllic Ludwig-Beck-Platz from May 8 to 10, 2026.

New this year is the “Art on Sunday” format, which offers regional artists a special stage. On Mother’s Day, they will present their handmade works and give visitors a behind-the-scenes look at their work.

Friday and Saturday, on the other hand, are all about wineries, culinary delights, and live music.

This concept creates space for everyone involved and offers visitors in the Steglitz-Zehlendorf district the opportunity to spend the Mother’s Day weekend in a varied and enjoyable way.

Mother’s Day is Art on Sunday

Mothers are many things at once: guides, comforters, keepers of memories—and sometimes true everyday superheroes. Reason enough, then, to spoil them especially on Mother’s Day: with good food, a glass of wine, and regional art.

Art on Sunday at Ludwig-Beck-Platz: Mother’s Day, May 10 from 12 p.m. to 8 p.m.

Art as an Adventure

“Art is an adventure into an unknown world that can only be explored by those willing to take risks.” This quote comes from the painter Mark Rothko. For him, art was a deeply personal and emotional process that requires courage. Art is not just an object to look at, but an experience that stirs emotions. Viewers, too, must be willing to immerse themselves in this unknown world.

That is precisely why Family & Friends loves to invite people to its lovingly curated arts and crafts markets in Berlin. Enabling encounters in public spaces beyond museums, showcasing everyday art that you can touch and take home, and bringing artists into conversation with visitors—that is the essence of these events.

On Mother’s Day, potters, painters, designers, and many other creatives will transform Ludwig-Beck-Platz in Lichterfelde West, centered around the striking coat-of-arms fountain, into a vibrant art mile.

Their works are as diverse as the materials from which they are created: wood, textiles, ceramics, glass, paper, or soapstone. On-site, beautifully shaped hats, decorative home accessories, everyday objects that feel good in the hand, and elegant jewelry are crafted. Practical and beautiful, surprisingly elegant, or playfully whimsical—what all pieces have in common is their unmistakable originality.
