Vorspiel Opening


18:30 –
silent green

Featuring live performances, screenings, installations, and many other artistic interventions, this opening event gives a taste of what to expect for the Vorspiel 2023 program. The opening night spans multiple locations within silent green including Kuppelhalle, the transmediale studio, other Ateliers, and the venue’s beautiful garden. To open the CTM and transmediale festivals, Vorspiel regroups initiatives, collectives, and venues into a city-wide event series: two weeks of exhibitions, performances, interventions, and artist talks that explore artistic intersections of digital culture and society.

Doors open: 18:00, programme starts 18:30, programme ends 21:30 Afterparty at Panke: Doors open 21:30, programme starts 22:00 Free event - we will collect donations for Plus1–refugees welcome.

As the venue's spaces have a limited capacity, access cannot always be guaranteed. We suggest you arrive on time to avoid disappointment and be prepared to spend some time outdoors enjoying a hot drink by the bar.

Please note that the Ateliers and transmediale studio are not wheelchair accessible.
