visitBerlin
The city of Berlin on Instagram
For @visit_berlin we developed a content strategy whose visual language provides moments of longing and inspiration from the German capital. Trendy spots from the fields of architecture, food, or sights are presented. By communicating Berlin’s current atmosphere, such as weather conditions, new locations or events, @visit_berlin can be perceived as a window to the city.
Discover exciting places through instameets
In order to constantly expand the community and to inspire them for Berlin, we organise quarterly Instameets where we explore exciting places together with local influencers. Some locations are made exclusively accessible to @visit_berlin, such as the Olympic Stadium or Opera Buildings.
