MINSK LIVE: Three Days of Summer, Art, and Encounter at DAS MINSK

From August 28 to 30, 2026, DAS MINSK Art House in Potsdam will celebrate its first summer festival MINSK LIVE. This three-day format is all about exchange, encounters, and shared activities, accessible with free entry and combining performances, music, film, tours, workshops, and discussions into a vibrant multi-day experience.

A Festival that Makes Art and History Tangible

MINSK LIVE ties into the ongoing commitment of the house to make the history and art of the GDR and the East German region visible. The former terrace restaurant on Brauhausberg was built in the 1970s in the modernist style of the GDR and still stands today as a place of encounter where architecture, memory, and present interconnect.

A Program Between Stage, Outdoor Area, and Open-Air Cinema

The festival brings together international and local artists such as Sarah Ama Duah, Magdalena Mitterhofer, James Gregory Atkinson, Idil Baydar, Schorsch Kamerun, and Masha Qrella. Performances, a film program in the open-air cinema, site-specific tours, a live audio walk, workshops, and culinary formats around the café bar HEDWIG and the oven sculpture Brenda are planned. Some program points require registration, while others are open to all as drop-in offers. ([dasminsk.de](https://dasminsk.de/kalender/9190/sommerfestival))

Atmosphere with View, Sound, and Culinary Delights

Entering the festival grounds offers not only art but also a finely curated summer feeling: open-air acoustics, conversations at long tables, fresh pizza from the oven sculpture, noodle pop-up, cakes, ice cream, BBQ, and drinks. The transition between indoor and outdoor spaces is particularly appealing, giving the festival an open, almost park-like dynamic. ([dasminsk.de](https://dasminsk.de/kalender/9190/sommerfestival))

Conclusion: A Strong Debut with a Sense of Community

MINSK LIVE is not a loud mass festival but an intelligent summer festival with attitude, depth, and festival atmosphere. For three days, a place for art enjoyment, conversations, and shared experiences will be created in Potsdam. Those who want to experience culture with summery lightness and a smart curatorial touch should attend this debut live. ([dasminsk.de](https://dasminsk.de/kalender/9190/sommerfestival))
