The Organizers

AL.BERLIN AL.BERLIN

AL.Berlin presents:
ALFILM Closing Party w/ El Waili || Etyen & Salwa || Zaid Khaled || @gretchenberlin
📅 Date: 30 April


El Waili and Zaid Khaled were denied entry to the Schengen area!!!!

Borders stopped them — but not the music.


We’re not cancelling. We’re adapting.


Join us for a powerful live show with Etyen & Salwa Jaradat, among many local and diaspora DJs.


Culture continues. Together, we keep the beat alive.


Info on ticket refunds is in the caption, if you need it.





It’s that time of year again—the ALFILM Festival After Party, where we wrap up a week of powerful cinema with an unforgettable night of music. Each year, we curate a unique and eclectic lineup that reflects the spirit of ALFILM, bringing together artists who push sonic boundaries—and this year's 16th edition is no exception.

This lineup spans the region and features El Waili, the Egyptian producer reshaping electronic music with hypnotic, futuristic blends of Chaabi and EDM.

Lebanese musician and producer Etyen, whose immersive soundscapes fuse indie, electronic, and traditional influences, will perform alongside Palestinian singer (and, by the way, researcher!) Salwa Jaradat, whose voice carries his electronic fusion with the feelings of home.

Zaid Khaled, a Jordanian-born, Cairo-based artist, is reinventing the golden era of Arabic pop using silky auto-tuned vocals and alternative electronic beats. Think classic 2000s music cranked up to 11. 

We're expecting a night where music complements the amazing programme created by ALFILM and brings a festive ending to everyone in attendance. We can't wait! Join us to celebrate music, movement, and storytelling—where cinema's sounds bring us all to the dance floor.

📍 Venue: Gretchen | Obentrautstraße 19-21, 10963 Berlin
⏰ Time: 20:00

See you there!
