Feel the Energy, Feel the Pride – Stay at art’otel Berlin

29/04/26

Every summer, Berlin Pride, better known as Christopher Street Day, brings an enormous energy to the German capital. With around half a million people filling the streets, it’s one of the largest Pride parades in Germany and Europe. To this day, the parade is one big party that doubles as a protest, with queer people demonstrating for equal rights and treatment.

LGBTQ+ history in Berlin and key landmarks today

Berlin has incredible queer history and the people in this city have never been afraid to show who they are. By the 1920s, the city had become a haven for gay and lesbian visitors from across the world, with a lively scene alongside early political organising. 

That activism started even earlier. In 1897, physician and activist Magnus Hirschfeld founded the Scientific-Humanitarian Committee in Berlin, which is widely recognised as the first LGBTQ+ rights organisation in history. Berlin’s first CSD took place on 30 June 1979, when around 450 people marched in West Berlin under the motto ‘Gay Pride’. 

Today, Berlin remains a global LGBTQ+ capital that’s home to landmarks including:  

  • Magnus Hirschfeld Memorial. Hirschfeld was one of the most important queer activists in his time. He was the founder of the world’s first Institute for Sexual Science and even successfully fought for the rights of trans people.  
  • Schwules Museum. Founded in 1985, this museum started as a home for the history and culture of gay men and has evolved into an international centre for researching and presenting queer culture and histories. 
  • prideART Berlin in “The Knast”. This is a former women’s prison that’s been transformed into a queer culture hub. This space hosts a restaurant, bar, studios and exhibitions to showcase queer art and host workshops and events. 

Berlin Pride events and parties 2026

There are plenty of Pride parties and events to choose from, and the hardest decision you’ll have to make is which ones to attend. 

The key highlights are: 

  • Stadtfest in Schöneberg (18 to 19 July 2026): Berlin’s legendary Lesbian and Gay City Festival with live music, community spaces and open-air food and drink. 
  • CSD weekend (24 to 25 July 2026): For the first time, Berlin Pride is over two days, with an additional Friday evening programme at Brandenburg Gate. This year’s Pride motto is “Haltung ist hot” (“Taking a stand is hot”), keeping the focus on visibility and equal rights alongside the celebrations. 
  • CSD parade day (25 July 2026): This is the main event. The demonstration begins at Leipziger Straße at Spittelmarkt and travels through the city towards Brandenburg Gate, where the finale takes place. 
  • House of Pride (25 July 2026): The headline after-party is one you don’t want to miss. It’s staged across multiple spaces and is designed as the big post-parade celebration. 
  • Two official FLINTA* nights (25 July 2026): For a party atmosphere with a clear community focus, there is Love is Love (official CSD FLINTA* party by Girls Town) and Love Always Wins (official FLINTA* Pride party by queer.garten). 

Keep an eye on the official CSD website for more action-packed events.

Best Online Rates Guarantee

Found a lower rate? We’ll match it and give you an additional 25% discount on your stay.

Here’s how it works

Your reservation must be made on Radissonhotels.com and claim must be validated by our Customer Care team.

The Best Rates Guarantee does not apply to the following rate types:

  • Qualified discount rates available to members of special programs or associations (i.e. AAA, senior, government, loyalty, employee discounts);
  • Special “exclusive offers” or “online coupons” or email solicitations not intended for the general public;
  • Rates not publicly available, such as negotiated Group or Corporate rates; including group extend-the-stay rates;
  • Package rates that include the room and other components such as parking, travel, car rental, entertainment, or meals excluding breakfast;
  • Rates found on opaque, bidding, or auction sites where the hotel brand, the specific hotel, the hotel location or price is not known until booking is finalized. Examples of these types of sites include but are not limited to Priceline and Hotwire;
  • Any other unpublished or private rates or sites requiring login.

Comparison Rates

Comparison Rates: The Comparison Rate must be found on a website available to be booked by the general public other than Radissonhotels.com within 24 hours of booking your hotel room on Radissonhotels.com and at least 48 hours prior to midnight hotel local time of your arrival date.

The Comparison Rate must be for the same hotel, same reservation date(s), same room type (i.e. room size and amenities), same number of guests, same currency as the Radissonhotels.com confirmation email, and the same advance payment and refund policies and restrictions must apply.

The Comparison Rate must still be available at the time Customer Care validates the claim.

The rates will be compared net of any taxes, gratuities, or any other fees associated with the room rate; however, if the Radissonhotels.com rate has taxes included, we will verify that the total cost of your Comparison Rate is lower so that prices are compared on a relative basis. Rate disparities solely attributable to rounding, fluctuations and/or difference in currency exchange rates are excluded from the Best Rates Guarantee. Claims will be denied when the difference between the Comparison Rate and the rate on Radissonhotels.com is less than 1USD, 1EUR or 1GBP or equivalent in the local currency of the hotel.

When a claim covers a stay for multiple, consecutive nights, the rates will be reviewed based on the average over the entire stay (the total consecutive nights stayed by the same guest or guests in the same hotel, regardless of the number of check-ins or check-outs or separate reservations). Comparison Rates applicable to only a portion of the reservation will not be honored.

If your reservation meets these criteria, let us know by submitting the claim form.

Customer Care will verify the rate meets all of these Best Rates Guarantee terms and conditions and contact you via email. Once confirmed, we will match the lower rate and discount that rate by an additional 25%. For prepaid bookings, the difference will be refunded on the applicable credit card by the hotel. You may only submit one claim for each stay.

If a new reservation confirmation number is provided for the new rate, it must be presented at the hotel at the time of check-in.

The Best Rates Guarantee is void where prohibited by law.

We reserve the right to change or discontinue the Best Rates Guarantee at any time without prior notice. We retain the sole right to determine the validity of any claim, whether a rate qualifies as a Comparison Rate, and whether a claim has satisfied the terms and conditions stated herein. Any dispute arising out of or related to the Best Rates Guarantee shall be handled individually and without any class action and is subject to the terms of the site usage agreement found on Radissonhotels.com. If the Comparison Rate is reserved through any Website other than Radissonhotels.com, we are not responsible for any fees or other costs incurred due to cancellation of a reservation.
