Each year in October, Berlin turns into a city full of light art. The artful displays on the famous landmarks, monuments, buildings, and places are turning the FESTIVAL OF LIGHTS into one of the best known light art festivals in the world.
National, as well as international, artists are presenting their brilliant light installations and thus, transform the city into a huge stage. They tell stories, draw attention to the special and present their cultures, arts, crafts, and messages. Berlin landmarks, historical places, streets, squares, trendy neighborhoods and hotspots of recent history are staged with light.
In the past years, the FESTIVAL OF LIGHTS has developed itself into a major touristic magnet and economic factor. With over two million festival visitors, more than 800,000 additional overnight stays and 1.3 billion media contacts, it is now – among the festivals in Lyon, Sydney, Moscow, and Eindhoven – one of the best known light art festivals in the world.
