28-31 May 2026, Kreuzberg, Berlin
XJAZZ! WEEKENDER is a four-day edition of Berlin's award-winning XJAZZ! Festival. Following the unexpected non-release of already approved public funding, the 2026 festival could not take place in its full format. Instead, XJAZZ! returns as a concentrated Weekender, preserving its core spirit through a focused program of concerts, club culture, and community-driven experiences across Kreuzberg.
