Weekend 18-20 August 2006 is the time when Global City party will be held up and the whole city center will be turned into a huge party place – it covers Kurfurstendamm from Wittenbergplatz to Uhlandstrasse. The event is annual and usually accommodates up to three million visitors for the party. Global City dates back to 1988 and has taken on gigantic proportions. Ten stages will present music of every kind, hundreds of stands will offer food and other items. Many of the shops on this shopper's mile remain open into the evening and on Sunday. Friday and Saturday the show is open from 11 to 12 am and on Sunday – from 11 am till 9 pm. Kurfurstendamm is located in the centre of western Berlin, south of the Tiergarten.
