Overview
- The march is scheduled to begin at 10:00 from Frankfurter Tor and follow Frankfurter Allee to the Socialist Memorial in Lichtenberg.
- Berlin police plan to deploy seven Hundertschaften—more than 500 officers—and say they expect a largely peaceful event but will intervene if necessary.
- Die Linke leaders Ines Schwerdtner and Jan van Aken, along with Berlin lead candidate Elif Eralp, have announced they will attend.
- Organisers pair the memorial with messages against capitalism and militarization and voice solidarity with Palestinians and socialist Cuba.
- A construction-related access issue at the cemetery was addressed by shifting site fences, after past editions saw clashes including 31 arrests and 24 injured officers in 2025.
