Sportforum Berlin Events: What Is Happening at Weissenseer Weg

This page explains the current events at Sportforum Berlin, the big sports campus on Weissenseer Weg. Berlin’s official page lists the events, but often only gives a date, hall, and short title. We add the missing context: what the event actually is, who it is for, where to check schedules, and whether it sounds like a public visit or a specialist competition.
Officially, the venue is Sportforum Berlin. People also search for it as Weissensee Sportforum because it is on Weissenseer Weg, but that is not the formal name.

Current events at Sportforum Berlin
Last checked: June 16, 2026. These are the current Sportforum events listed by Berlin’s sport administration, expanded with the best available federation or organizer links.
June 20 and 21, 2026: Berlin Junior European Cup Judo
Venue: large sports hall / Grosse Sporthalle
Official listing: European Cup U21 Judo
Best for: international judo fans, families with judo kids, athletes, coaches, and anyone interested in the next generation of elite judoka.
The official Berlin listing only says “European Cup U21 Judo.” The full event is the Berlin Junior European Cup 2026, an international U21 judo tournament listed by the European Judo Union and the IJF. The IJF page is the fastest data link; at the time of checking it listed 38 countries and 485 competitors.
The useful split:
- Saturday, June 20: women’s -63, -70, -78, +78 kg and men’s -60, -66, -73 kg.
- Sunday, June 21: women’s -48, -52, -57 kg and men’s -81, -90, -100, +100 kg.
- June 22 to 24: Berlin EJU Junior Training Camp follows the cup.
Start times depend on entries, so check close to the weekend. For casual spectators, the final blocks are usually easier to follow than a full day of eliminations.

June 27 and 28, 2026: Berlin-Brandenburg Multievent Athletics Championships
Venue: athletics stadium and throwing facility
Official listing: Berlin-Brandenburgische Meisterschaften Mehrkampf 2026: Leichtathletik
Best for: athletics people, families following club athletes, and anyone who likes the rhythm of combined events rather than one-off finals.
The official Berlin listing is terse. The athletics calendar gives the fuller name: BBM Mehrkampf & BM Block U14 mit oBBM Hindernis. The detailed LADV event page calls it oBBM Mehrkampf und Hindernis.
In plain English: this is a championship weekend for combined events, younger age-group block competitions, and obstacle races. LADV lists U14 block events, U18/U20 and senior multi-events, plus 1,500 m, 2,000 m, and 3,000 m obstacle races depending on age group.
What to expect:
- This is a competition-first weekend, not a street festival.
- Multi-events are spread through the day, so use the time plan.
- The exact time plan matters because track, jump, and throwing events can be in different parts of the campus.
- Registration closes June 21, 2026 according to LADV, so the participant lists should become more useful after that.

June 27 and 28, 2026: Judo JC03 Wanderpokal
Venue: large sports hall / Grosse Sporthalle
Official listing: Judo - JC03 Wanderpokal
Best for: Berlin judo families, club supporters, coaches, and anyone following youth judo results.
Berlin.de lists the JC03 Wanderpokal in the Grosse Sporthalle on the same weekend as the athletics championships. The most relevant organizer link currently available is Judo-Club 03 Berlin’s Wanderpokal 2026 page, which points readers to competition lists, results, and the medal table.
The organizer page is light on descriptive copy, so treat it as the live hub for lists, results, and medal table rather than a preview article. If you are going for a specific athlete, club, or age group, check it close to the weekend.

Recent public highlight
The Familiensportfest 2026 took place at the Sportforum on June 13 and 14. It was one of the most public-facing Sportforum weekends of the month, with hands-on sports activities, demonstrations, stage programming, and the Berliner Jugendfinals grouped across the campus.
It is a useful comparison point for future updates: some Sportforum dates are easy family visits; others are specialist competition days where you need the schedule and the exact hall name.
What Sportforum Berlin is
Sportforum Berlin is Berlin’s second-largest sports complex and a major training base for elite and youth performance sport. The official Berlin page says the campus covers about 50 hectares and includes 35 facilities for more than 15 Olympic and Paralympic sports.
For visitors, the main thing is practical: the exact venue matters. An event may be in the athletics stadium, throwing facility, Grosse Sporthalle, judo hall, speed skating hall, Wellblechpalast, or another part of the campus. Always check the hall or facility name before you go.
Getting there
Use Sportforum as the transit stop name. The official Berlin page lists:
- Tram: 12 or M13, Sportforum stop, roughly 0.1 km from the site.
- Bus: N50, Sportforum stop, roughly 0.2 km from the site.
For most visitors, tram is the cleanest option. Give yourself extra time once you arrive; the campus is large.
Tips before visiting
- Check the exact venue name. “Sportforum” can mean several halls and outdoor areas.
- For athletics, bring the time plan and look for whether events are in the stadium or at the throwing facility.
- For judo, watch for final schedule updates after entries close.
- For ice skating, note that the 2025/2026 public skating season is over; Berlin.de says the 2026/2027 season is expected to start in October 2026.
