A first for Europe
This is the night LE SSERAFIM first played Europe. On Monday, October 26, 2026, the five-member group performs at Uber Arena as a stop on the PUREFLOW World Tour. Chaewon, Sakura, Yunjin, Kazuha and Eunchae bring the HYBE/Source Music group’s first European show to Berlin.
The venue opened in 2008 as O2 World. It became Mercedes-Benz Arena in 2015 and Uber Arena in 2024. In concert layout it holds roughly 17,000 people, with a standing floor in front of the stage and steep tiered seating curving around three sides.
Getting to Uber Platz
The arena faces the Spree in Friedrichshain, on the open square now called Uber Platz. The nearest stations are:
- Warschauer Straße: S3, S5, S7, S9 and the U1, about a five-minute walk east of the arena
- Ostbahnhof: S-Bahn and regional trains, roughly ten minutes’ walk west
- Tram M10: terminates at Warschauer Straße
The concert falls in fare zone A of the BVG network. Between the station and the arena you pass the East Side Mall, a convenient spot for food. Across Mühlenstraße runs the East Side Gallery, the longest surviving stretch of the Berlin Wall. The red-brick Oberbaumbrücke crosses the river just south of Warschauer Straße.
Fans on the square
K-pop crowds in Berlin start gathering on Uber Platz long before doors. Fans commonly queue for official merchandise hours ahead, and floor-ticket holders often form a line near the entrances well before the show. Fan-made freebies such as photocards, stickers and banners get traded across the square, since fans of the group (FEARNOT) travel in from across Europe for a first tour.
Late October in Berlin is cold and frequently damp, so the people who spend the afternoon outside usually come in layers. Germany switches to winter time on October 25, 2026, the day before the show, so darkness falls before 5pm.
Inside Uber Arena: the house rules
German arenas run on clear rules, and Uber Arena is no exception. The arena sets out its bag-size limits and prohibited items on its website. Fans with larger bags usually leave them at their hotel rather than risk the security line.
- Tickets are scanned at the gate; mobile tickets are standard for arena shows in Germany.
- Lightsticks are the norm in the stands. Most of the crowd holds the official one, and the arena glows with it during ballads.
- Fan chants for each song circulate online among fans before tour dates. A large share of the Berlin crowd shouts them in Korean.
- Exit traffic funnels toward Warschauer Straße, where platforms crowd heavily after the encore. Many attendees walk west to Ostbahnhof instead, where it is usually calmer.
A Monday show also means a working-day crowd the next morning. Out-of-town fans usually stay around Friedrichshain or near Ostbahnhof, within walking distance of the arena.
