Tuesday, 5 May
Well, this is one way to settle the question of developing the former airport.
The Berlin Senate will approve its Olympic concept plans on Tuesday, officially sealing the city's bid for the Summer Olympics in 2036, 2040 or 2044 — and it looks like Tempelhofer Feld will play a huge part. If the Berlin+ bid is accepted, the city plans to stage its grand Olympics opening ceremony on the former airport, complete with a gold-coloured pyramid erected at the edge of the field.
