All screening facilities of the EFM are wheelchair accessible with the exception of the Cinemobile.

Please find the overview on all cinemas and studios here.

All of our EFM venues are wheelchair accessible except of the former producers hub that will be used again for similar purposes, The Gropius Bau will be modernised as of 2025 and it is planned to make the Producers & Projects Hub on the 2nd floor accessible at that time. We have also looked into the possibility of installing a temporary wheelchair lift on one side of the stairs, but unfortunately, for various technical reasons, this does not seem to be possible. As such, unfortunately this issue remains.

For all other venues whose infrastructure was not originally designed to be accessible, we will have ramps on site to make them wheelchair accessible.

For Berlinale tickets the Berlinale Inclusion Desk takes care of bookings for handicap admission.They also have an email address: that can get contacted for that matter.

Please visit our Accessibility website for more detailed information.

REGISTRATION

Must my child have a badge?

If you choose to bring your child with you, they are welcome to accompany you without obtaining a KidsBadge. However, the KidsBadge is required for access to the Berlinale Kindergarten and to register caregivers to provide supervision for your child while you are unable to do so. Please note that the KidsBadge is only available for children up to 12 years of age.

Does the accompanying caretaker need a badge?

The caretaker will not be provided with a badge. However, you must pre-register the accompanying caretaker through the registration form in advance. The caretaker's name will also appear on the back of the kid's badge.

The Kindergarten is not within any Berlinale venues, so no accreditation is needed to access it. However, in order to enter the EFM & Press locations, the caretakers' names will appear on lists at the access container (Gropius Bau) and the Info Counter (Marriott Hotel). Our staff will then hand out entry tokens to the caretakers

How can I give specific Instructions about my kid’s needs to the childcare?

With the dedicated registration form, you can provide details about food, care, health, and sleeping time. The Nanny team will review it and ask any questions if needed.

What if I pay for the service and end up not using it?

Unfortunately, we will not be managing reimbursements after you have paid for your child's badge.
