Reggae in Berlin
Events organized or recommended by Maratone Long Distance HiFi – the original oldies soundsystem in Berlin
You will find many dances and concerts if you are looking for Reggae in Berlin. Some involve soundsystems, some are very low key and take place in former squats and small bars. As we are mostly interested in the sound of young Jamaica we focus on events where you can hear Ska, Rocksteady, Early Reggae and Roots from vinyl with our recommendations.
Regular Events
The city is still recovering from lockdown and no regular nights are back up running yet. We’ll update this section once things are back to normal.

The Tighten Up Crew is a constant supplier of good vibes in London for more than 20 years. You can catch them at their regular “Reggae Cookout”, at Notting Hill Carnival on the Gladdy Wax Soundsystem or throwing their signature Dance “Tighten Up!” where the UK’s best selectors and Deejays will play and toast.
As it has been almost 10 years since selectors Mistah Brown, Tim P and Deejay Champian played in Berlin it is about time to get them over again. From Ska and Rocksteady to Reggae, Roots and Rub-a-Dub – Reggae Rumble will bring back the good old days of Jamaican Music.
Original vinyl records and our heavyweight Maratone Long Distance HiFi provide proper sound with bubbly basslines.
