2023 - August - Potsdam Castle Night

The Prussian kings and emperors could not have imagined that 30,000 visitors would stroll through their gardens at night. Although they are spread out in the approximately 300-hectare park, they would surely not have been pleased with so many common people.

However, not everyone is allowed in here of course, you need an admission ticket, which is not cheap at 46 euros.

If possible, you should arrive at the opening of the event at 5 p.m., as there are already attractions to admire in the daylight. We had some bad luck and arrived after dark due to a stranded train. We had applied sunscreen in vain.

Well, after all, it is called Potsdam Castle Night. And so, there was plenty to see even in the darkness: acrobats, musicians of all kinds, and also actors were on the move. There was also plenty of food and drinks.

By the way, the mosquitoes also found plenty to feast on. Therefore, remember for your next visit: bring insect repellent!

And one more tip: it is worth checking for promotions in advance. With our Friday tickets, we got a discount of 27% through Groupon!
