Hurricane Factory Berlin

The Hurricane Factory Berlin in Schönefeld operates Germany's largest wind tunnel: 5.20 meters in diameter, 15 meters high, and up to 280 kilometers per hour from six large fans. For companies, there's the Event Flight with two flights for up to 15 people. As a team event in Berlin, this is the option where everyone truly takes off.

Hurricane Factory Berlin: Germany’s Largest Wind Tunnel in Schönefeld

The Hurricane Factory Berlin is located on Waßmannsdorfer Allee in Schönefeld, near BER Airport and just outside the city limits. Waßmannsdorf S-Bahn station is within walking distance. From the outside, the building is unmistakable because the wind tunnel *is* the building: a flight chamber 5.20 meters in diameter and 15 meters high, glazed all around from six meters up. Those standing below can see everything happening above, and that’s exactly part of the concept.

Six large fans with a combined output of around 2,100 kilowatts push the air from bottom to top, reaching up to 280 kilometers per hour. This makes the facility Germany’s largest wind tunnel. The wind speed is set individually for each flight, ensuring that a petite colleague flies just as well as a heavier colleague. No prior experience is needed; the minimum age is five years, and there is no upper limit. The weight limit is 120 kilograms.

Indoor Skydiving as a Team Event for Groups up to 220 People

The facility offers a ready-made package for companies. The Event Flight costs 1,199 Euros for up to 15 people and includes two flights per guest. Up to 30 guests can fly per hour, and groups of up to approximately 220 people are possible in total. Each flight lasts one minute, which sounds short but is long enough in the air. A safety briefing, flight position training, a personal instructor, and complete equipment including a jumpsuit, helmet, and goggles are included in the price.

The Hurricane Factory Berlin is thus more than an attraction with integrated catering. A conference room with a projector, screen, whiteboard, and Wi-Fi can be booked for 500 Euros for a daily rental. The main floor, measuring 220 square meters, can be converted for a buffet, high tables, or a DJ, and the rooftop terrace is suitable for a barbecue buffet. Those planning a workshop anyway can therefore get a conference and team event in one place. Catering is arranged by the facility upon request, from finger food snacks to a full buffet. Since everything takes place indoors, the weather plays no role.
