Berlin / Neukölln
GIRI is a cultural venue in Neukölln built around music, food and people. Intimate by design, flexible by nature.
We host listening sessions, live sets, record launches, workshops, dinners, talks and community-led events.
There is no distance between the artists, the bar and the room. That closeness is what makes GIRI feel less like a venue and more like somewhere you return to.
Independent music and media are at the heart of GIRI. Our team works with artists, collectives and neighbours to bring their ideas into the room.
The programme grows through those collaborations. We make space for creative exchange, with inclusivity guiding how we welcome people and shape each gathering.
The programme changes shape, but the aim stays constant: encounters that feel close, thoughtful and alive.
Listening sessions and DJ nights built around shared listening and movement.
Community-led nights that keep the distance between booth and room small.
Collaborations with the artists, labels and collectives around us.
Food, wine and records gathered around one table.
BACI sessions, recordings and editions from beyond the night.
Food is part of how we bring people together. Aperitivo bites before the music, a candlelit dinner, or a table of sharing plates: each makes room for a different kind of gathering.
Our seasonal menus are prepared in-house, with vegetarian, vegan and other dietary adaptations discussed for your occasion.
In the kitchen: Massimiliano Galantino, our in-house chef for private dinners and receptions.
