All Months
May through September gives you the best weather and longest days. July can hit 30°C, perfect for beer gardens and outdoor festivals. But summer also means crowds at major sights and higher hotel prices. Spring (April-May) brings blooming trees and fewer tourists — just pack layers because weather shifts quickly. Fall (September-October) offers comfortable temperatures and beautiful colors in Tiergarten. Winter is harsh but atmospheric. Christmas markets warm things up in December, and many museums have shorter queues. Look, Berlin works in any season, but those summer nights when the sun sets after 9pm and the whole city spills onto terraces? That's when this place really comes alive.
