Wild Combination Festival Returns

An all-local lineup of artists on September 6th and 7th.

By Staff

Wild Combination is back for its second edition this September, bringing two days of music, art, storytelling, and community care to our favourite secret venue in Berlin, just steps from Jannowitzbrücke.

Organised by our beloved Breakfast Show host and longtime resident moe., the Non-profit festival stays true to the spirit of its first edition, celebrating Berlin’s creative scene through an all-local lineup of artists, DJs, collectives, and cultural organisers. Everyone involved is contributing their time and energy to build a space rooted in joy, connection, and mutual support.

The weekend will feature DJ sets from African Acid Is The Future, AL.Berlin, Bird House, Body Language, CALABADDIES, Daytimers, PDA, Refuge Worldwide residents, and Unkompress. Film screenings will be curated by Rawy Films, and a dedicated listening space will be soundtracked by Astral Traveling, Shiru (Élan Vital) and Friends.

Live music will come from a genre-spanning selection of artists including Aver (Move 78), Henry Weekes, Myles Morgan, sic, and more to be announced. Pauric Keenan (Funeral Sandwiches) will lead poetry and storytelling sessions, while the Records Club will be hosted by Adam Cooke (Throwing Shapes).

Alongside the music and art programming, the festival will also feature a children’s program, food trucks, a marketplace, as well as panel talks and workshops, all to be announced soon. Everyone’s contributing their art, energy, and time, with all profits being split equally between several vital initiatives: 3ezwa, which provides financial and legal support to those facing repression and police violence in Berlin for their commitment to the Palestinian cause; Mutual Aid for Refugees, affiliated with No Border Assembly and Support Group Network, offering legal aid to refugees fighting deportation in Berlin; Lilipad Library, which creates safe, welcoming libraries for children in refugee shelters, youth homes, and underserved neighborhoods, featuring books in their native languages.

Wild Combination will also raise money for Refuge Worldwide crowdfunder to stay on air and the Sudanese American Physicians Association, which is providing desperately needed aid to over 30 million Sudanese people facing the world’s worst, and most tragically forgotten, humanitarian crisis.
