On four summer weekends, DURCHLÜFTEN transforms the Humboldt Forum’s  Schlüterhof  into a free open-air meeting place where musical traditions from across the globe unfold as living cultural archives.  

5 years open. Already 5 years DURCHLÜFTEN. For the sixth time now, DURCHLÜFTEN transforms the Schlüterhof courtyard of Berlin’s Humboldt Forum into a vibrant open-air stage for global music, cultural dialogue, and shared experience. From 9 July to 1 August 2026, across four summer weekends, the festival presents 24 live acts and 12 DJs from around the world. Each evening features two concerts followed by a DJ set, creating twelve nights of musical discovery, movement, and encounter in the heart of Berlin — once again with free entry for all.  

UCHE YARA embodies, at just 23, the fearless creativity of a new generation. As a singer, multi-instrumentalist and producer, she fuses alternative pop, R&B and club sounds into a raw, genre-blending universe that feels both intimate and electrifying. Switching effortlessly between instruments and styles, she delivers songs that hit hard and feel close. Her unmistakable voice, bold energy and magnetic stage presence pull the crowd in, turning every performance into a shared experience. Following a celebrated EU tour, the acclaimed EPs GOLDEM DAYS and honey, and the prestigious MME Award in 2025, Uche Yara has established herself as one of the most exciting voices out there.
