Celebration of Freedom

when:9 Nov 2009
where:Brandenburg Gate

On the 20th anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall, a giant domino chain follows its former route. The last domino sends fireworks exploding over the Brandenburg Gate and hails the start of a concert and all-night party.

Each piece of the domino chain is made by Berlin's school children and resembles a piece of the wall. The event is to be attended by world figureheads and international stars, and will feature accounts of the momentous night from eye witnesses.
