Taking place from May-November, this year’s summer season is Kiezsalon’s most expansive yet.
Kiezsalon is back for another summer of live shows and experiences, spotlighting groundbreaking new experimental music.
Travelling across Berlin and Brandenberg to visit both new and familiar venues, this year’s programme is Kiezsalon’s most extensive and expansive yet. With over 50 artists on the bill, almost 70 percent will play their Berlin debuts.
The season opens on 30-31 May at Schloss Britz – an atmospheric 18th-century neoclassical manor house in Neukölln. Exploring a breadth of genres and showcasing a taste of what’s to come this summer, the line-up features celtic experimentalist Brìghde Chaimbeul, Mercury-nominated British composer and saxophonist Cassie Kinoshi and Portland-based classical-ambient composer Ann Annie, as well as collaboration between forward-facing Lithuanian folk duo Merope & multi-instrumentalist Shahzad Ismaily, and a new link-up between musicians Paul Wallfisch & Dana Schechter.
Elsewhere on the 2025 programme is German experimental musician Limpe Fuchs, Japanese vibraphonist and marimba player Masayoshi Fujita, Antwerp-based musician Adriaan de Roover, Welsh triple harpist and composer Cerys Hafana, vocalist, musician and producer Elaine Howley, and many more.
