IFA Exclusive mobility partnerships for 2025 #IFA2025

IFA Berlin, the world’s largest event for home and consumer tech, announces its official mobility partners for 2025: Bolt, Lime, Voi, Free2move and BVG Club. Visitors and exhibitors at IFA will benefit from exclusive discounts and flexible offers for a smooth and sustainable stay.

Mobility as part of the IFA experience

From 3 to 9 September 2025, Berlin will become a global stage for technology and culture – and mobility is a central part of the experience. By collaborating with leading providers, IFA enables its visitors to explore the city without detours and with a reduced carbon footprint.

From Bolt’s ride-hailing service to e-scooters and e-bikes from Lime and Voi to car-sharing solutions from Free2move and exclusive BVG Club tickets: the offers from IFA’s mobility partners are as individual as the IFA visitors themselves – and take them directly to their destination.

‘Mobility is a key topic of our time, that’s why we are very pleased about the partnership with leading mobility providers. Together, we are focusing on smart, sustainable solutions that take our guests flexibly through Berlin and ensure an all-round successful trade fair experience,’ says Leif Lindner, Managing Director of IFA Management GmbH.

IFA Moments launches: Where tech meets culture – IFA Berlin cooperates with Home Again Club Festival

IFA Berlin, the world’s largest home and consumer tech event, brings back IFA Moments – a platform for cultural highlights that extends well beyond the main event in September and unfolds throughout the year. The campaign kicks off with a partnership with the Home Again Club Festival, taking place at Berlin’s Club Revier Südost from 28 May to 2 June 2025.

The IFA Moments campaign launches with a clear focus: Tech meets Techno. Loud, creative and deeply rooted in Berlin’s club scene, it forms a space where culture and innovation collide – uniting electronic music, community and future-facing technology. Headline acts include Peggo Gou, Solomun, Helena Hauff, Job Jobse, I Hate Models, Octo Octa and many more.

At the heart of this collaboration with the Home Again Club Festival is the panel “Innovation, imagination and the future of the music scene“, on 31 May. Artists, DJs and tech visionaries will explore how sound, innovation and community co-create tomorrow´s cultural spaces – openly, inspiringly, and with a visionary spirit. Expect fresh perspectives, honest conversations and a preview of how IFA Moments is redefining what a tech platform can be.

“With Home Again Festival, we’ve found a partner who shares our vision: To make technology something you don’t just see but feel and experience. In the club, on stage, and through dialogue. Technology is part of a wider cultural movement and that’s exactly what we aim to highlight with IFA Moments, as our contribution to the cultural scene,” says Leif Lindner, CEO of IFA Berlin.

IFA Moments creates direct exchange between brands, artists, communities and technologies. Through events, co-creations and creative partnerships, IFA Berlin makes it clear: IFA is not only the world’s largest consumer tech event – it’s also a platform that drives cultural momentum, enables meaningful encounters, and opens new perspectives at the intersection of tech, culture and community disciplines.
