I am doing 90 festivals in 90 days...

Started last night at Tempelhof Sportsfield (used to be the airport) with Compagnie Off a french performance group. They rolled out wheels with colored lights that looped around in the crowd. Then the Mother Wheel, which was already out on the grass, lit up. It raised a hundred feet into the air as the smaller wheels joined it. All that happened while club music was played on huge speakers. I didn't ride my bike there because my wife wanted to go - but she doesn't ride so we took the bus.

Today, after the classical music show, I rode through the Brandenburg Gate to the Victory Column, made a left and rode past the Mexican Embassy while heading home.

90 Days 90 Events. FREE and outdoors. All over Berlin!
Berlin’s never had a festival like this before. At the waterside, in parks, between skyscrapers, on museum grounds and city streets: the 90 partners contributing to the Kultursommerfestival will transform various sites into stages, screens and dance floors — in every neighborhood and for all Berliners and guests.

The Kultursommerfestival is part of the DRAUSSENSTADT urban culture initiative and will kick off on 18 June 2022 at the former Tempelhof Airport with a big open-air celebration that will include music, foods & drinks and a light show featuring artists from the Burning Man Festival.

I made a short video at the end of the Compagnie Off show. It is hard to see but there is a man up there holding a red flare. They were at the Burning Man show in America so the concept probably comes from that.

There is much rain today however.
