Weekend Tips: What to Do This Weekend in Berlin

August 28 to 30, 2026: Events, festivals, exhibitions and more things to do for your perfect weekend in Berlin. more

Read the Room: Buch am Mittwoch

Books under constitutional protection, books on TikTok, books in the age of AI – authors in their writing rooms, out and about with their finger on the pulse, a readership in constant flux: What does authorship mean today? Our series, with a new title but a long tradition at the Volksbühne – once Nachtcafé, Lesezone, then Lesebühne, Literatur, and more recently Parole:Text – is entering its next round. Selected authors of fiction, poetry, and non-fiction present themselves at Roter Salon to launch their books, talk about their writing practices and meet their readers.

Runtime: Wed, 28/10/2026 to Wed, 28/10/2026
