Monthly Handpan Meetups in Berlin

Since July 2022, we have been hosting monthly handpan meetups, bringing together a vibrant handpan community for an inspiring mix of music, creativity, and connection. Whether you're a complete beginner or an experienced player, our events offer something for everyone! Our meetups feature open jam sessions, hands-on workshops, and community-driven learning spaces where you can deepen your skills. We invite special guests, including renowned handpan artists and musicians to share their expertise and inspire us.

Beyond music, we celebrate creativity with open stages, where anyone can perform, whether solo or in collaboration. You’ll also find unique community events such as sound meditations, rhythm circles, and discussions about the art and craftsmanship of handpans. Come join us, meet like-minded musicians, explore new techniques, and be part of a growing handpan culture in Berlin. Bring your instrument, your curiosity, and your energy—let’s create something special together!

Summer Time (May - September)

In summer time we meet up at the Tanzkreis in the Volkspark Rehberge. The best way to get there is by public transportation. Exit Afrikanische Straße (U6) and walk about 10 minutes to the beautiful old dancing circle that has the shape of a gigantic handpan!

 

Winter Time (October - April)

In winter time we meet up at the Initiative der heilenden Künste 2a (south wing), 2nd floor. There are 4 different rooms for jamming and meeting up. We have to pay for rent and heating, so we are asking for a 10 EUR contribution (Members of the Pantopia e.V. Association join for free). If you’re unable to afford it, please feel free to contribute what you can — solidarity matters more than the amount. To get to our rooms in the “Initiative der heilenden Künste”, you have to walk around the south wing and in a corner you will find a metal door. Just walk up to the second floor and to the right you will find the “Initiative der heilenden Künste”.
