The July–August edition of the Exberliner

The Berliner (formerly Exberliner) is an English-language magazine published in Berlin that was launched in 2002.[1] It is published monthly (except for the July/August double issue) and available at newsstands around the city or by subscription. The magazine offers cultural listings, reviews, journalistic articles, opinion columns and a cultural guide, which are also continually updated online.

The magazine was founded as a free newspaper in 2002 named The Berliner but was forced to change the name, which was already trademarked. The magazine relaunched a few months after its initial release as Exberliner. Contrary to popular belief, the name is not intended as a play on the term ‘expatriate,’ despite the fact that English-speaking expatriates are one of the main audiences of the publication.

The magazine marked its twentieth anniversary in 2022. In 2024, after over two decades as Exberliner, the magazine was renamed back to its original title, The Berliner.[2][3]
