Festival of Lights at the Olympiastadion Berlin

For the first time ever, the Olympiastadion Berlin is bringing the Festival of Lights 2026 to the western part of the city!
Visitors can experience the historic stadium, Olympic Square, and the Olympic Rings on the east side of the stadium in a colorful light show.
A special highlight are two exclusive light shows set to music, which Finnish lighting designer Mikki Kunttu developed specifically for the Berlin Olympic Stadium. The shows alternate from 7:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m. (each show lasts approximately 15 minutes). From the East Stand, with a view of the Marathon Gate and the fire bowl, you can enjoy the impressive interplay of light and sound in a particularly relaxed atmosphere.
