Overview
- The traveling installation, titled “October 7, 06:29 AM — The Moment Music Stood Still,” opened at Tempelhof Airport and is scheduled through November 16, 2025.
- Curators rebuilt the festival setting with original artifacts and forensic material, including tents, burned cars and bullet-riddled portable toilets, alongside multimedia testimony and a healing room themed “We will dance again.”
- Survivors from the Nova Foundation conceived the project and will speak with visitors during the Berlin run, with €20 admission supporting the foundation’s programs.
- Berlin Mayor Kai Wegner, Federal Education Minister Karin Prien and Culture and Media Commissioner Wolfram Weimer are official patrons, with Weimer calling October 7 a day of pain for Israel and Jews worldwide.
- Israeli sources report that nearly 50 people abducted from the festival area remain held in Gaza with their status uncertain as negotiations continue, and organizers expect pro‑Palestinian demonstrations during the show.
