Creative Bureaucracy Festival

The Largest Festival For Public Sector Innovation
Save the date: 11 June 2026 | Festsaal Kreuzberg Berlin

The Creative Bureaucracy Festival puts excellent, creative solutions to almost all community issues and the people behind them in the limelight. From small adjustments to big visions for the future! It represents a shift from a “no because” culture to a “yes if“ culture that embraces experimentation and new ideas. In doing so, the festival aims to refresh the reputation of public administrations and appeal to imaginative new talent.

Every year over 2,000 international participants from government, politics, civil society and other change-making organisations join the Creative Bureaucracy Festival to share and celebrate outstanding examples of innovative public administrations.
