Until February 17, 2026, Berlin moves to a different rhythm – the rhythm of Tanzolymp, the international youth dance festival that brings together young dancers, choreographers, and teachers from all over the world. Hosted in Berlin’s prestigious theatres, it’s a celebration of creativity, discipline, and cultural exchange through the universal language of dance.
Since its founding in 2004, Tanzolymp has become one of the most inspiring youth dance festivals worldwide. Its motto, “Dance as a global language of understanding,” reflects its mission: to promote artistic growth, cultural dialogue, and international friendship through movement.
The event culminates with the Gala of the Stars, where the best young performers share the stage in a spectacular final show – a night of elegance, precision, and passion.
Mid-February in Berlin is typically cold but full of winter charm. Temperatures range from –2°C to 6°C, with short days and clear, crisp evenings. Light snow or drizzle is possible, but the theatres and venues remain warm and comfortable.
Before you head out, check the Berlin hourly weather to plan your commute or decide what layers to wear between performances.
Weather tip: Wear layers – a warm coat, gloves, and shoes with good grip. The walk from U-Bahn stations to the theatres can be chilly, especially in the evening.
The main events usually take place at Theater am Potsdamer Platz and Konzerthaus Berlin, both easily accessible by public transport. Rehearsals and workshops are held in dance academies across the city, such as the Staatliche Ballettschule Berlin.
Berlin’s transport is punctual, but check Berlin hourly weather for snow or icy conditions that might slow things down.
Over several days, audiences witness the beauty of youth talent – from breathtaking ballet solos to energetic modern dance groups. Workshops give young dancers a chance to learn from world-class teachers, while audiences feel the unity of cultures through movement.
Even if you’re not a dancer, the performances are mesmerizing – precision, music, and expression flow seamlessly.
