Get them to play "Take My Breath Away".Booked for next week for birthday weekend away, any recommendations?
It's only because I was too late to get tickets for the UK, but it was much cheaper in Berlin and we got a blinding Airbnb deal in the city plus cheap air fares, just hope Berlin and the rest of the World is still standing by then!Jealous of seeing the Sparks there ..

And it aint him whos going to leave dadadadada etc . Saw them a few years ago and Ron fell over when doing his little dance tripped over a mic stand or something. It was with great relief when he moved and leapt ( sort of) back to his feet as , sadly , he's not getting any younger. Great live...even nowI was going to go as well but the town isn't big enough for the both of us.
Thanks for asking this question. I’m going on a boys break the last weekend of April so some good hints on here.Booked for next week for birthday weekend away, any recommendations?
Did auschwitz when we stayed in krakow just before lockdown, unbelievableWhen we were in Berlin there was this 'Bike', about 5 yards long with about 15 guys on it. One at each end pedalling and the rest
drinking beer. it was fantastic.
Must see The Wall' and that Jewish memorial with all those different sized polished stones.
Our guide asked what we thought it was, I said it was a memorial recognising the millions of Jewish people of all ages, killed by the Nazis.
Very moving.
when we went hertha berlin we’re playing so “dragged” the mrs to that. She actually enjoyed the experience as did i, beers in your seats whilst watching the game was a novelty as well.Thanks for asking this question. I’m going on a boys break the last weekend of April so some good hints on here.
I believe Union Berlin are at home the weekend we are there so I think that’s on the agenda.
I’ve looked at thatIf you’re feeling flush and want to treat the mrs, book a meal at the top of the revolving bt tower (i think it is) - decent food and great views of the city.
What a great gig to see and city to visit. I’ve not seen Sparks live but would love to. Hope you have an amazing time. I note that Kraftwerk have been announced as headliners at Green Man in Wales this summer, another I’d love to see but no tickets left.I'm piggy backing this Steve, We're off there at the end of April for a long weekend, going to see Sparks in concert there!
Hint,I lived there for 2yrs whilst I was in the army...in fact my regiment was the last British regiment in Berlin. Myself and my wife actually went back for the 1st time in about 26yrs just as restrictions got lifted last year. I was really interesting to see the changes since we were last there.
Absolutely love Berlin, there is a great bar on the Kudamm called Alt-Berliner-BierSalon (next to a imbiss that does an awesome currywurst!) they have live music on every night with loads of footy scarfs pinned to the walls...next time we go we're taking in a BFC scarf.
Definitely worth booking in advance to go up the TV tower in alexanderplatz to avoid the queues.
The holocaust museum is worth a visit and take some tissues cos its very emotional.
If your feeling fit then give the climb to the top of the Seigesaule a go for some spectacular views of the city.
There is now a tethered hot air balloon called Welt Balloon not far from Checkpoint Charlie which is another city view.
Hope you have a great time, cant wait until we go back.

9 min walk from our hotelHint,
I had a great night in the Alt-Berliner a few years ago. MOTD was on in the background and the band all had mullets and played some proper cheese. Everyone in the place was loving it.
And the 25h Hotel bar is 9 mins walk from the Alt-Berliner bier salon.9 min walk from our hotel
