Berlin, 6 September 2025 – IFA Berlin 2025 focuses on the interconnection of technology,
culture and lifestyle. Visitors can see and experience the latest technologies and trends up
close, both indoors and outdoors. The IFA Sommergarten invites you to concerts.
IFA Sommergarten sold out
The varied and cross-generational programme of the IFA Sommergarten has been very well
received – after two days of live music, sold-out concerts and an exclusive opening night, the
next event series starts today:
Berlin-based Ikkimel invites you to her first exclusive open-air show: Ikkimel & Friends. With
influences from trap and techno and a bold attitude, the rapper and her special guests are
sure to thrill the audience.
New formats and activations
The new areas such as Outdoor Cooking & Gardening next to the Sommergarten, the
Mobility Track, Beauty Hub and Gaming Specials are proving to be crowd pullers – visitors
have the opportunity to experience the latest products up close, which is unique on this
scale.
The Mobility Track shows how transportation will become the future: from electric vehicles
and e-bikes to autonomous driving, charging infrastructure and sustainable mobility
solutions. Between Halls 6 and 7, visitors can experience mobility innovations up close and
discover how freedom, efficiency and connectivity are intertwined.
Diversity connects – Innovation for All
With exhibitors from 49 countries, IFA reflects the full spectrum of international diversity.
Different perspectives, cultures and ideas come together here – making the trade show a
unique meeting place for the global technology world.
‘Innovation for All is more than just a name for us – it’s our mission. IFA builds bridges
between people, markets and cultures and shows that technology knows no boundaries.
Everyone is invited to be part of this community,’ says Leif Lindner, CEO of IFA
Management GmbH.
As an international event, IFA invites all visitors to discover innovations and experience open
exchange – everyone is welcome.Outlook
Tomorrow’s trade fair day brings exciting highlights to the Dream Stage and the
Sommergarten.

selected start-ups will return, present their refined pitches and engage in an in-depth Q&A
with the jury.
At the end of the 45-minute session, a winner will be announced, who will receive a free
stand at IFA Next 2026. The final will be presented by Factory Network, with speakers

The entertainment continues in the IFA Sommergarten from 20:00: Fest & Flauschig with

additional seats have been created – for an evening full of wit, attitude and spontaneous
exchanges.
Tomorrow at 13:30, Prof. Dr Michael Braungart, co-inventor of Cradle to Cradle, takes the
Dream Stage to show how technology can be rethought – not as a problem, but as an
opportunity for innovation and a circular economy. Using practical examples, he will open up
perspectives for products with a positive footprint, genuine quality instead of reduction, and
radical innovation.
