Best Time to Visit Berlin

Berlin's best travel months are May through September. June and July are warm and long-daylight months with temperatures around 22C to 26C. Berlin's outdoor culture fully opens: beer gardens, canal-side bars, and open-air festivals. The Berlin International Air Show (ILA) in June and outdoor concerts at Waldbuhne are major draws. August is peak tourist season with the highest hotel prices. September has excellent weather and hosts the Berlin Marathon and Internationale Funkausstellung (IFA). May is excellent for fewer crowds and spring flowers at Tiergarten and Charlottenburg Palace gardens. April can still be cold, around 12C to 16C, but Berliners emerge for outdoor activity after winter. Winter (November to February) is cold, dark, and atmospheric. December's Christmas markets at Gendarmenmarkt and Spandau are among Germany's most impressive. January and February are the quietest and cheapest months in the city.
