If you are a food lover, then this is the festival for you! Berlin Food Week is one of Germany’s most diverse food festivals, bringing together chefs, restaurants, food entrepreneurs, manufacturers and brands from across the globe for a week of experimentation, tasting and celebration of food.

Taking place for the 11th time in 2025, the food festival acts as a platform for the local food industry, promoting what the city of Berlin has to offer when it comes to nutrition, quality and most of all, enjoyment in food. All participants share a passion for trying new combinations, mixing styles and experiencing the local food metropolis with all its culinary facets.

Taste all the delicious food Berlin has to offer

While there are many events across the city, one of the main focuses for Berlin Food Week is the House of Food, which is one of the best marketplaces you will ever visit. The House of Food will welcome more than 40 manufacturers, brands and start-up, who will share their products with the public.

The House of Food is open:

• Friday, 10 October: 10am-8pm
• Saturday, 11 October: 10am-8pm

For those who want the cooking done for them, the pop-up restaurant Hot Finch is serving exciting and innovative street food. Their signature dish of the weekend is the Schnitzeburger, smashing the national foods of the USA and Austria into one delicious dish!

For the sweet tooth

Lena Zachs, the pastry chef for CANAL II, has worked their culinary magic and created a delicious eclair with Burgenlandish flavours. Think apricot coulis, Tahitian vanilla cream, whipped ganache, apricot jelly, pumpkin seed oil and nougatine; and then try to resist buying one! These incredible inventions are available exclusively in their shop from October 8-12, but can be pre-ordered online if you can't bear the thought of missing out.
