April brings together things that don’t, at first, seem to belong together, yet make unbeatable pairings. Oysters and records, pottery without a plan, books at the pub, and chalk on your hands. Here are CC’s Calendar Tips for a weekend just the way we like it. In the mood for wine and records? Find both on Friday, 10.04.2026, at Coro, where Dauwd will be serving oysters with three different toppings, alongside music by Mary is on acid. Decadent and down to earth. One club you’re guaranteed to get into, unless it’s sold out, is Kleistone’s Pinch Pot Club. As the European Days of Arts and Crafts are celebrated this weekend, it’s two hours of clay and room to experiment on 10.04.2026 and 11.04.2026. No prior experience required and no traditional instruction, just fun and free-form creativity. There are small printed guides if you like. Firing and glazing happen later, and the pieces can be picked up afterward.
If you’ve already found your shape, maybe it’s time to find your favorite secondhand piece. On Saturday, 11.04.2026, Find Yours is celebrating its store opening, with a selection of consciously curated vintage pieces. There will also be free drinks and music. If the oysters are still sitting a little heavy, wash them down with a beer and a good book. On Saturday, 11.04.2026, Kneipenbüchertausch takes place at Alt-Berliner Bierstuben. Hosted by the people behind Auf ein Buch, it’s all about swapping books, talking about them, and taking new ones home. A pub quiz follows at 16h (signing up in advance is a good idea). For chalk on your hands and a little height, FLINTA* Night at Bouldergarten starts on Saturday, 11.04.2026, with a shared warm-up. After that, different sessions, from beginner bouldering and footwork to dyno and strength training. There’s also childcare and sauna infusions later in the evening. Sunday, 12.04.2026, is all about food and Neukölln. Paolo Pinkel is hosting Table Farrah for a one-day kitchen takeover, with lunch and dinner service. Expect a modern take on Mediterranean cooking with North African influences. In other words, everything you could possibly want.
