Unfortunately, gift cards cannot be used to purchase advance tickets online. However, gift cards may be used to purchase day-of-show tickets at the door, subject to availability. To be safe, we recommend using a separate payment method to purchase advance tickets and using your gift card on food and drink the night of the show.

The time listed is when music starts. Our operating hours are listed at the bottom of this page. Come early, as seating is first come, first served.

Due to Berlin’s small size, we can only seat complete parties. You are welcome to stand in the bar area and have a drink while you wait for the rest of your party.

Berlin's ticketing platform, Tock, allows users to purchase up to five tickets at a time. While you may purchase additional tickets in multiple orders, we are a small club with limited seating for large parties, and we can't guarantee that a party larger than five will be seated together. We recommend that larger groups arrive 45-60 minutes before showtime to increase the odds of being seated together.

We will hold space for you for up to 30 minutes after the show starts. After that, we may give up your table to someone else. If you know you won’t be able to arrive within the first 30 minutes of the show, email info@berlinmpls.com to give us a heads-up, and we’ll do our best to accommodate.

Yes. Reach out to info@berlinmpls.com with your friend’s name and email, and we will make the transfer. Unfortunately, we are not able to refund tickets.

Potentially! We can sometimes release a few tickets at the door on the day of the show. Come down if you’re feeling lucky.
