October 28-30, 2026 Berghain, Panorama Bar, Saule & Kantine am Berghain Sound Metaphors continues its momentum established over the last years as a select promotional entity and takes a leap into a new plateau of celebrating music with a 3 day affair, October 28, 29 and 30. With a focus on live acts, Sound Metaphors brings you another carefully selected lineup of emerging players and legendary pioneers, all within the confines of one of the world’s most iconic cultural institutions. With over a decade of finely curated music events, Sound Metaphors Festival represents a natural progression of our commitment to musical appreciation, independent culture, and intentional programming — a highly selected journey throughout a wide range of aural flavours: techno, ambient, dub, live electronics, experimental, leftfield and everything beyond and inbetween. We invite you to come together once again in our version of a safe space for music to exist with as little constraints as possible. Here’s to human expression and love of music, dance and sound.
