Charité's 'Bloody X‑Mas Markt' Opens in Berlin With Metal Shows and Blood Donations

The two-day market pairs Wacken-backed performances with a walk-in donation drive to boost blood supplies before the holidays.

Overview

  • The event runs November 28–29 at Charité Campus Mitte, with the market open from 11:00 to 21:00 both days.
  • Blood donations are accepted without appointments on Friday from 11:00 to 18:00 and on Saturday from 10:00 to 16:30.
  • Scheduled performers include Lord Of The Lost, Deine Cousine and Heaven Shall Burn, with additional meet-and-greet sessions.
  • Organizers advise donors to be at least 18 years old, weigh 50 kg or more, feel healthy and bring valid ID and a donor card if available.
  • All proceeds from food and drink sales go to the hospital’s Childhood-Haus, and officials caution that high turnout could lead to waiting times.
