Time for round three – bigger, better, stronger!
Forward Festival will return to Berlin on September 14th-15th 2023, presenting nothing less than a firework of inspiration! Prepare for a program featuring more than 35 speakers on two stages, ranging from international heavyweights to local heroes of the creative industries, as well as exclusive side-events, workshops, and much more.

In its extraordinary, modernist congress-hall architecture, the House Of World Cultures enables new forms of encounter and opens up experiential spaces between art and discourse.
