Hotels

We have pre-selected and established cooperations with hotels in Berlin. Make sure to use the booking code when making your reservation to benefit from special prices.

Getting around

In Berlin, the best option for sustainable travel is the BVG local transport with travel on the S-Bahn (city railway) and U-Bahn (tube), as well as buses and trams.

As an alternative to public transport, why not organize Velotaxis as a green shuttle service or (e-)bikes for a city tour? Or, for an especially memorable experience, how about Segways for location hopping?

Berlin Welcome Card - The city card includes free use of public transportation and reductions for 200 attractions.

Booth Crawl
‍To celebrate the successful completion of the first day’s sessions, we invite you to be part of our Booth Crawl — an exciting networking event in the Expo area.

This exceptional opportunity allows you to immerse yourself in valuable conversations, forging connections with the brilliant minds at the WeAreDevelopers World Congress. By actively participating in the Booth Crawl, you can engage with developers in a relaxed setting, establishing genuine connections beyond the confines of traditional networking.
We encourage partners to contribute by providing enticing handouts that reflect your brand and captivate the attendees’ senses. Think of cool handouts like refreshing beers, ciders, soft drinks, and delectable small bites, creating a delightful experience for all participants.
‍
‍The Booth Crawl will take place on Thursday, July 10, from 6:00 pm to approx. 8:00 pm.
‍Should you wish to join us and have your Booth Party promoted on the event landing page (in a separate section), please reach out to your Partner Manager and we will provide you with more information.
