German Ocean Festival

Parliamentary Ocean Evenings as part of the German Ocean Festival

The German Ocean Festival is intended to develop a general awareness of our ocean, encouraging participants to take find out more about the ocean, to take ocean-friendly decisions, and to do so immediately. The project aims to ensure that the ocean is embedded in political Berlin. In 2025, the German Ocean Festival will consist of three Parliamentary Ocean Evenings spread throughout the year. The focus is on political actors, but networking with companies and civil society is also an important factor.

The focus will be on the UN Ocean Decade, national, European and international marine policy as well as the blue economy and sustainable products. An immersive ocean show and musical accompaniment will once again ensure a sensory experience of the ocean habitat. Each Parliamentary Ocean Evening will conclude with a discussion round in which the status quo of German marine policy will be compared with European and international developments.

The German Ocean Foundation and the Planetarium Berlin Foundation cordially invite you to the upcoming Parliamentary Ocean Evenings at the Zeiss-Großplanetarium in Berlin:
