Oona Bar Closing Week

On October 4th, Oona Bar will close its doors for the final time. Since June 2021, five months after we began broadcasting online, Oona Bar has been the beating heart of Refuge Worldwide. Named after a six-year-old neighbour who hung around while we were first renovating, the bar has been home to the radio studio and a beloved meeting point for our residents, friends of the station and people around the city in search of a hangout. We will sadly close the bar on October 4th - for reasons explained on our crowdfunder page - and move the radio station to our space at Niemetzstraße (just a short distance further into Neukölln). For the final days we have a great programme of radio for the closing week and hope you can join us on the street.

On Tuesday, September 30th, loves_kills will host an evening takeover of house and disco, before Yasmin Umay, Tina & Key Clef, Njeri and more come through the following day. Thursday (the night before a public holiday here in Germany) will see the OPEN*DYKE crew running things until midnight.

On Friday, the final weekend celebrations begin early, running through the 3rd October Feiertag. We will have food and a two-hour radio show from Dub & Dal, plus shows from station heroes mokeyanju, Andreya Casablanca, Obelix & Özay Öztürk, Laura Vargas and more.

For the final day (4th October), we welcome a new café in the kiez, Cheeky, to serve food. Oona Bar opens from noon and there is music and radio shows from Leona & gugol maps, MINQ, Souley, Nomansland, Kudur, D. Strauss and more.
