This week is all in the name of a bloody sacrifice! Karfreitag and Easter is coming up on the weekend, which means for us four work-free days (ideally, we know how that never really works out…). But before that we have movie screenings, free dinners, store openings, art exhibitions, magazine launches, naked performances and more, before everything culminates (ideally) in our annual iHeartBerlin Easter Special that we are doing with and at food gallery Merkezi. Check out the events after the jump.

We have already announced it on Facebook: After last year’s Couture Eggs event we are once again hosting an iHeartBerlin Easter Special, this time in collaboration with the food gallery Merkezi at Kottbusser Tor, Adalbertstr. 5/6. The event will start at noon and we will be serving waffles, cakes, quiches, soups and coffee as your late breakfast, afternoon delight or light dinner. In the afternoon we will also be hosting a real Easter Egg hunt in Kreuzberg. We will be giving you hints on the blogs where you can discover our Easter eggs, if you find them, you can exchange them for snacks from our cake buffet or for special gifts and goodies from our sponsors (tba). In the evening we will be having DJs, drinks and music to celebrate the Easter weekend with you! Join the Facebook event!
