Berlin Holiday Weather Overview

Berlin, Germany's capital city, is well known for its festivals, cultural events and contemporary arts, and it's a popular destination for a city break at any time of the year.

When is the best month to visit Berlin?

Although the city is tolerable weather wise year round, it is advisable to avoid visits during the dead of winter, (December through January). During the winter, the city's beautiful skyline becomes overcast and icy streets can become slick and hazardous. Summer (June through August) marks the peak of Berlin's festival season, making it a great time for art, music, and food lovers to sight see.

Berlin in the Spring

Spring is a beautiful time to visit Berlin. As the city awakens from winter, the leafy squares spring to life with people in the bustling cafes and shops, and the many parks and lakes around Berlin start to regain the greenery and colours.

March can still be rather cold in Berlin, with temperatures struggling up to around 4°C, so take sweaters and a good coat. By May, however, temperatures have recovered and have a daily mean of 14°C. There are rainy days, and grey, overcast days, but there are also days with beautifully crisp and clear air.

Wet and cool days are the perfect time to explore the 5 museums on "Museum Island" in the city; on brighter days, enjoy the wide ranging Easter festivities, or take in the Spring Festival with its carnival atmosphere and fairground rides.

Berlin in the Summer

Berlin's summer weather is pleasantly warm, but rarely hot. Temperatures average out at around 20-24°C, and rarely climb higher than 25°C. You can still expect some rainy days, though, so don't visit Berlin without a waterproof jacket or an umbrella.

During the summer, the city is alive with events, festivals and shows. You can chill out on one of the many man-made beaches along the river Spree, or spend a balmy evening in one of the city's beer gardens. If you're up to travelling a little further afield, the lakes around Berlin are gorgeous at this time of the year. Within the city centre itself, the Tiergarten comes to life, or you could enjoy open air films under the stars.

Berlin in the Autumn

Berlin's many green areas are at their most awe-inspiring as the autumn colours weave their magic on the city. Temperatures in September, October and November tend to drop quickly, going from around 14°C in September down to 4°C in November, and as winter approaches, the wetter weather closes in too.

However, some of the city's most vibrant events take place in the autumn. September sees "Art Week", one of the most exciting contemporary art events in the world. In October, two different light festivals turn the city into an enchanting wonderland in the dark, with beautiful displays and special events.

Berlin in the Winter

Berlin is not as cold in the winter as you might think, but there's no denying that you'll need some winter clothing. In December, January and February, the temperature hovers close to freezing but there's not much variation in daytime and night temperatures, so at least it doesn't get any worse at night.

It snows quite often, but only enough to give a covering of snow which soon vanishes again - but while it lasts, it refreshes the city's sometimes uninspiring architecture. With more than 60 Christmas markets and a fantastic range of indoor festivals and cultural events on offer over the winter months, a winter visit to Berlin should not be discounted.

What to pack and wear in Berlin?

Frequent participation is common year round in Berlin. Visitors should carry an umbrella or rain gear to avoid getting caught in an unexpected shower. Aside from scattered showers, weather in Berlin is relatively predictable. The cold season (December to February) requires warm jackets, hats, and gloves. Warmer months (June to August) will need only a light jacket in the evenings. Berlin weather does not typically boast extremes in highs and lows seasonally.
