Highlights & Attractions at Giant Rooks in Berlin

• Last arena night of the DACH hall run: Berlin closes the main tour loop before a make-up show in Bielefeld on 21 October.
• New album tracks plus the hits: songs from If Heaven Exists, This Might Be It sit next to “Wild Stare”, “Watershed”, “Heat Up”, “Morning Blue” and “Somebody Like You”.
• Current single “The Future Is Cancelled” – piano-led and reflective, a clear step on from the 2024 number-one album How Have You Been?
• Five-piece from Hamm: Frederik Rabe, Finn Schwieters, Luca Göttner, Jonathan Wischniowski and Finn Thomas, known for live sets that swing between melancholy and lift-off.
• Max-Schmeling-Halle holds up to about 11,900 for concerts, with floor standing and seated tiers, next to Mauerpark in Prenzlauer Berg.
• Dreamboys have opened several 2026 tour dates; check official channels or the night itself to confirm the Berlin support.
• Typical set length on this tour is just under two hours including the encore – Frankfurt ran about 19 songs plus a video interlude and encore.

Program & Schedule: What to Expect in 2026

Doors 19:00, show 20:00 (Berlin event listing; subject to change). The headline set on this tour usually lasts around 110 minutes. A Berlin-specific setlist is not published yet; recent If Heaven Exists, This Might Be It Tour 2026 shows opened with “The Better Life” and “Blood on the Dashboard”, mixed in older favourites such as “Heat Up”, “Wild Stare” and “Watershed”, and finished with an encore. Mid-set there is a video interlude for the new album. Order can shift from night to night.

Max-Schmeling-Halle sits in Prenzlauer Berg beside Friedrich-Ludwig-Jahn-Sportpark and Mauerpark. Expect standing on the floor and seated in the stands. Bags larger than A4 (about 20 × 30 cm) generally have to go into paid cloakroom. The venue uses a deposit-cup system. Wheelchair spaces are available (up to 76, depending on the layout).

Eventim capped orders at four tickets per purchase on other tour dates. FanTicket editions were offered across the tour. Price snapshot: public listings in October 2026.

Visitor Tips: Travel & Accommodation in Berlin

• Getting there: The hall has almost no visitor parking – use public transport. U2 to Eberswalder Straße (about 600 m) or S+U Schönhauser Allee (S8, S41, S42, S85, U2, about 700 m). Tram M10: Friedrich-Ludwig-Jahn-Sportpark. Drivers should use nearby garages (Kulturbrauerei, Schönhauser Allee Arcaden, Q-Park Alexanderplatz). BER is about 21 km away; Berlin Hauptbahnhof about 3 km.
• Weather and clothing: Mid-October in Berlin is often 8–14 °C, windy and showery. Bring a jacket, closed shoes and a small bag (max A4). The floor gets warm; the queue outside does not.
• Where to stay: Prenzlauer Berg around Kastanienallee, Helmholtzplatz and Mauerpark is walkable. For quieter or cheaper beds, use Mitte, Gesundbrunnen or Friedrichshain on the U2/S-Bahn. Saturday night in Berlin books out – reserve early.
• Doors and security: Body and bag checks – allow 30–45 minutes extra. Doors at Max-Schmeling-Halle usually open about 90 minutes before showtime; this date is listed as 19:00. Leave large backpacks at home or in cloakroom.
• Before and after: Cafés and bars line Schönhauser Allee, Kastanienallee and Mauerpark. After the encore, U2 towards Alexanderplatz or Pankow is the fastest way out. Use only Eventim and the band’s official channels for last-minute support, door-time or schedule changes.
