On Thursday, 23 October 2025, Berliner Sparkasse cordially invites explorers of all ages to a children's festival at the Museum für Naturkunde Berlin. From 9:30 a.m. to 6:00 p.m., visitors can expect a varied programme full of knowledge, fun and adventure – with free admission.
"Free access to knowledge is important for our democracy, our society and nature. Amazement, hands-on experience and asking questions are the beginning of every spirit of discovery," emphasises Director General Johannes Vogel. "We are happy to have Berliner Sparkasse as a cooperation partner with whom we can make such days possible together."
On this day, the museum will be transformed into a lively place of discovery for children and families. In addition to exciting exhibitions and hands-on activities, visitors can embark on a journey of discovery with numerous programme items:
11:00 a.m.: herrH – the interactive concert for children
3:00 p.m.: Julian Janssen, known as Checker Julian, live on stage
There will also be a museum rally through the exhibition, face painting, a photo booth, a guessing game, a podcast corner and various themed tables.
Refreshments will also be available: the forecourt will offer grilled delicacies, waffles, cakes, coffee and cold drinks.
