3:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m.
Together for Music: The WAVE AKADEMIE for Digital Media and Kultur Büro Elisabeth are collaborating as part of the Fête de la Musique Berlin.
From 3 p.m. to 10 p.m., the park in front of St. Elisabeth Church will become an open stage for a wide variety of musicians and genres—from soul, rap, R&B, and electronic music. Let’s go out and celebrate this musical diversity.
For everyone who makes music, enjoys music, and celebrates life; for those who otherwise can’t afford concerts. For everyone who wants to rediscover the sound of the capital. For those who need and deserve special stages because the everyday ones remain closed to them. The Fête is open to everyone!

About NADA
NADA will open the stage at St. Elisabeth Church Park on June 21.
NADA is an Egyptian singer based in Berlin whose musical roots lie in soul, R&B, jazz, and neoclassical music. She loves mixing genres to create her very own sound. She began singing at age 7, inspired by Whitney Houston, Mariah Carey, and Christina Aguilera.
On July 12, 2023, she gave her first live performance at B Flat and has been performing non-stop ever since. On April 5, 2024, she released her first single, “Sucked All of Me,” and exactly one year after her first stage performance, on July 12, 2024, her debut album “You” was released. She writes music to transform the pain and anger from past relationships into a journey of healing and self-discovery. On stage, NADA sings from the heart and creates moments that touch the soul.

About AZZURRA
AZZURRA is the music project of Azzurra Traficante, an Italian artist from Basilicata who sensitively blends emotional electronica and dark pop with hypnotic vocals, creating an intense, unique, and profound sonic universe. Based in Berlin, she released her single “Before Your Lies” and her debut EP “Where Are We Going” under the artistic direction of producer and guitarist Federico Ferrandina, attracting the attention of numerous international music blogs.
In 2019, she wrote the official anthem for World Environment Day, “We Are Walking On,” and performed in Vienna and Sarajevo for the United Nations alongside Ferrandina and multiple Grammy winner Sadaharu Yagi. In 2020, she released her debut album “Underlight” on the French label Another Music Records, which garnered over 200,000 streams. In 2021, supported by a grant from Musicboard Berlin, Azzurra released two singles with accompanying music videos in her native language, Italian (“Controalisei” and “Sapessi”). Through her native language, she weaves a deep connection between nature and reality, revealing her search for authenticity and simplicity. This ongoing musical journey leads her today to experiment with new forms of expression, blending local dialect, English, and Italian into a deeply personal and contemporary poetic vision.
Stylistically, the audience can expect an intimate and powerful live set that blends alternative pop and electronic music. Azzurra combines vocal loops, live synthesizers, and backing tracks and will perform songs from her album “Underlight” as well as her latest singles.

About the WAVE AKADEMIE for Digital Media
With its training programs, the WAVE AKADEMIE for Digital Media aims to provide its students with career prospects and facilitate their integration into the job market. For many professions in the creative industries—which require specialized skills and competencies alongside technical innovations—there are few training opportunities within the traditional education system.
An important aspect of the WAVE AKADEMIE for Digital Media’s mission is to create an educational program that is tailored to the changing demands and innovations of the job market, one that on the one hand bridges the gaps in the educational system for media professions and on the other hand specifically targets practical, applicable skills for real-world use.
