Berlin Folk Festival 2026 

The very first Berlin Folk Festival in 2026 brought Woodstock-inspired vibes to the heart of Berlin, inviting guests to leave their latex looks at home and slip into flannel instead. The festival unfolds a flower-power journey through the late ’60s and early ’70s, from singer-songwriters to nugget-mania and psychedelia.

I originally joined the core team as Head of Press and Image Relations and quickly expanded into a broader organizational and operational role. My responsibilities ranged from developing structure sheets and securing media presenters to onboarding partners such as BIC, Rough Trade, 1968 vintage vendor; consulting on social media, copy, merchandise, and budgeting; organizing backstage catering; recruiting volunteers; supervising on-site operations; and defining the floor plan and naming of festival spaces.

Together with the founders, Marie Sauerbrei (Managing Director and Booker of the Psych-Rock Roster) and Dan Oz (Shareholder & Booker of the Singer-Songwriter & Indiepop Acts), our three-person team brought the festival’s vision to life through a true DIY, crossover workflow.
