A festival like
a lucky bag: Down by the River has
once again put out its tentacles. With its tireless exploratory
spirit, it has
searched the depths of the Berlin live cosmos and scoured the corners
of the internet. The "Festival for Unheard and Off-Kilter
Sounds" will present its musical finds on July
6, 2025, at its 14th edition,
yet again in the idyllic, anarchic garden setting of ://about
blank in Friedrichshain. The program whirls through genres and the
regional underground, roams across the planet, and even ventures into
outer space. Who's coming?
