The Sisyphos gate on Hauptstrasse in Berlin: two metal ducks facing each other under a rusted banner with the club's name

Sisyphos

Weekend-long parties behind the duck gate

01The experience

A party that starts on Friday and ends on Monday

Sisyphos lists its parties by their full length. A regular one opens on Friday at 22:00 and is listed until Monday at 10:00, so the question is less which night to go than which part of the weekend.

The club's own summary of itself is one line: “Das Orakel rät: Bitte raven Sie hart!” — the oracle advises you to rave hard. Beyond that it publishes a calendar, its entry rules and a ticket shop for a few special events.

Admission & reservations

Sisyphos runs its own door and entry. KONNEKTION does not take table bookings here — Berlin club nights are standing, door-and-ticket events.

02The setting

The gate with the two ducks

The photographs on this page show the street side: the gate on Hauptstrasse with two ducks facing each other, and the entrance beside it. They are licensed photographs taken from the street in August 2022.

Sisyphos publishes no photographs of the grounds, and asks guests not to take pictures while they wait in the queue. KONNEKTION shows nothing from inside.

03Your visit

Twenty-one, and read the entry rules

Sisyphos states that entry is from 21 years. Its entry rules exclude military-style clothing such as camouflage, football and national-team shirts, large backpacks, suitcases and bulky bags, and dangerous objects of any kind.

The club says it has a maximum capacity and that entry can be paused for a time when it is reached. It also states that nobody is refused because of gender, gender identity, sexual orientation, religion, disability, ethnic origin or nationality, and that door staff decide according to the situation.

04Music & atmosphere

Named parties, no published line-ups

Each party has a name and a date and nothing else. The calendar for late 2026 lists Duck Side of the Moon, Enternal Flame, Dichte Denkende, Highnachten on 24 December and Neujahrssause from 1 January, each simply marked “Party”. The club does not publish who plays.

Around those sit other formats: Sauniphos, a ticketed two-day sauna event on 14 and 15 November, and the Sisyphos Wintermarkt for art and clothes from 27 to 30 November. After Neujahrssause the next date in the calendar is the reopening party on 5 March 2027.

Hauptstrasse · Berlin-Lichtenberg

Sisyphos Event GmbH gives its address as Hauptstr. 15, 10317 Berlin. The gate with the two ducks faces the street.

Why it stands out

The length of the party

Parties that are listed from Friday night to Monday morning, with a name and a date and no announced line-up. You go for the place and the weekend, not for a headliner.

Before you go

Age, clothes and bags

Be 21 or older, leave camouflage, football shirts and large bags at home, and do not photograph in the queue. Regular parties have no advance ticket in the calendar; ticketed specials are sold in the club's own shop.
