Friedrichstadt-Palast Berlin

Current information: the Friedrichstadt-Palast will remain closed until 02 January 2021.

A must-see during any Berlin visit, Friedrichstadt-Palast Berlin evokes a Vegas-style nightlife with hundreds of scintillating dancers, costumes and dance routines. Gourmands will love the carefully crafted regional German delicacies served at the onsite restaurant La Diva. An evening of grand spectacle and dining await. Here you can watch the trailer of  the VIVID Grand Show.

The best of Berlin

Attractions such as the Berliner Dom and Brandenburg Gate are a fixture in movies set in Berlin. Almost entirely free of traffic, Museum Island, called the 'Louvre on the Spree’, is home to a cluster of museums such as the Altes Museum and the Pergamon. Bite into a booming culinary scene that testifies to Berlin's multiculturalism. For purists, there's plenty of bratwurst to go around. Tiergarten's secret groves, creeks and shaded paths are a favourite with Berliners and visitors in search of solitude. The city's intense nightlife is more than just electronic music and clubs – revue and cabaret are quintessential to the Berlin experience.

A world-class theatrical experience

Following the city's reunification in 1990, Friedrichstadt-Palast Berlin quickly regained its lost popularity, becoming one of Europe's top show stages. Cutting-edge technology helps recreate scenes as varied and complex as ice rinks, circus rings and even a water basin. The Palast boasts the largest laser show in Europe which accompanies the svelte dance routines of the iconic showgirls. The ensembles feature between 60 and 100 dancers, including the world’s longest line of showgirls. Dance, music, lasers and acrobatics result in a scintillating spectacle, leaving audiences craving for more. Fans of stand-up comedy can pop into the Quatsch Comedy Club housed inside the basement of Friedrichstadt-Palast.

VIVID Grand Show

VIVID is a declaration of love to life. Featuring more than 100 stunning artists on the world’s biggest theater stage. A production budget of 12 million euros for spectacular costumes and stage sets of unparalleled dimensions. A kaleidoscope of physical perfection and outstanding artistic performances. Young R’eye is separated from her father and transformed into an android – half human, half machine. Although her life is now subject to external control, her yearning for freedom lives on. And, indeed, one day she does begin moving to a different beat. With the bright-eyed wonder of a child, she beholds the world with new eyes and perceives the overwhelming beauty of things that we often overlook. 

The Sunday Times „Las Vegas in Berlin“ 
Berliner Zeitung „The best show to ever be seen on this stage“ 
The Irish Times “Absolutely perfect!” 
Broadway World „ A GIGANTIC hit! Bravo!!!“ 

Revue shows are not musicals. Coherence is primarily achieved through visual imagery rather than narrative storytelling. Meaning they are also perfect for guests with no knowledge of German.
