Experience Christmas time anew at the famous Tierpark in Berlin, at the wintery light festival Weihnachten im Tierpark. Thousands of lights will brighten up the park, wrapping Europe’s biggest landscaped park and historic castle with festive magic.

A new, unique Christmas experience at Tierpark
You are invited to take a stroll through this vibrantly illuminated fairytale winter wonderland. The new romantic and intimate light festival aims to unite a broad audience with contemporary light art. The castle (a must-see attraction in Berlin) and the park's flora and fauna are all immersed in a blanket of colour and lights, designed to transport you to a Christmas paradise.
The light festival Christmas at the Tierpark begins with a stroll through the lively illuminated plant kingdom, past a number of sparkling light installations into the unique and bright fire garden. See imaginative animal figures composed of innumerable, tiny light-emitting diodes and an infinite number of stars.

See Tierpark illuminated like never before
After your tour of the light festival, why not warm up by sampling some of the delicious regional dishes and German beer on offer, or snuggle up by a crackling fire? For the more adventurous spirits, there is ice-skating on the rink by the castle, free of charge for those with a ticket to Christmas at the Tierpark.
Designed for the whole family to enjoy a festive evening in the run-up to the national holiday, the Weihnachten im Tierpark takes place no matter what the weather, so we advise you dress warmly. We also recommend travelling by public transport to the park when possible, as parking spaces are limited! (This means you can drink more mulled wine!)
