LABnight 2025

25.11.2025, 17:00 – 21:00 Uhr

On November 25th from 5:00 PM, we invite you to join us for an evening stroll through the newly renovated LAB exhibition and to connect with the people around CityLAB and our projects.

What to expect:

  • Stroll through our exhibition – with new exhibits and an expanded audio guide, you can get to know our projects and prototypes even faster and engage directly with our team.
  • BärGPT is the new AI assistant for the Berlin administration. In a joint talk, Benyamin Abdülhay (Digital Transformation Officer / Berlin Senate Chancellery) and Ingo Hinterding (Head of Prototyping & Research Projects / CityLAB Berlin) will provide insights into the development process – from the first prototype to the challenges along the way toward an open and user-friendly solution. In the following Q&A, you’ll have the chance to ask all your questions!
  • At CityLAB, you can not only see data but also touch it – and take it home as a colorful acrylic keychain. The result is a tangible, aesthetic object that’s not only beautiful but also invites reflection on your own data and its role in our world.
  • Connect & Exchange: Meet like-minded people and chat with us! We’re looking forward to inspiring conversations with our community – and hopefully many new faces.
  • The Kiezlabor team looks back on the past stops – sharing impressions, stories, and moments from Berlin’s neighborhoods. There’s also a sneak peek at what’s coming in 2026: Where will the journey go next? And how can you get involved?

Of course, there will be food, drinks, and a cozy pre-advent atmosphere.

We’re very much looking forward to spending an evening together with you – to connect, celebrate, and enjoy good company.
