01-May-2024

An extraordinary burger spectacle starts in Berlin on Father's Day. "The Champions Burger" is already a huge success in Spain and has become the biggest food truck event in Europe in recent years. Kreutzers, the online store for sustainable food, is bringing the event to Germany for the first time this year. From May to September, the best burger in Germany will be sought in 8 cities (Berlin, Hamburg, Leipzig, Düsseldorf, Cologne, Frankfurt, Saarbrücken and Munich) over a total of 95 days. The big event series will open on May 9 at 10 a.m. at the spectacular RAW site in Berlin, where 16 of Germany's most successful burger stores will compete against each other over 11 days. Every day until 19 May, visitors to the capital can enjoy the country's most excellent gourmet burgers and vote for their favorite via QR code. Entry to the festival is free and the burgers are all offered at the same price. From the bun to the patty, all food comes from sustainable production - a prerequisite for those responsible at Kreutzers, who also attach great importance to sustainability themselves. Well-known stars such as The BossHoss and Massiv as well as blogger greats such as Blocki030 and Rene Schmock are also expected - The BossHoss will even be taking part in the competition with their own food truck and presenting their TBH burger and their new BBQ book at selected locations. A potato-based burger highlight will be provided by the family business Burgis - the dumpling specialist will be taking part in the competition with a dumpling roundie burger.

Germany's top burger stores compete for the title of "Best Burger"

Berlin is the ideal location for the premiere of the cultural festival in honor of the burger

The capital is known for its vibrant food culture, which is characterized by a wide variety of gastronomic offerings. Burgers have become a popular and firmly established part of the culinary scene. Numerous restaurants, snack bars and food trucks offer a wide range of variations of the American cultural asset, from classic to creative interpretations. This underlines Berliners' appreciation of the delicious classic. "We are absolutely delighted to have the opportunity to open this fantastic series of events at the iconic RAW site in the capital. Berlin is the city of unlimited possibilities, Berlin is colorful, creative, lively and open to new things and that's why 'The Champions Burger' fits incredibly well here," says Manuel Ostner, Founder and CEO of the organizer Kreutzers. For a long time, the burger was labeled as greasy fast food - but in recent years it has experienced a major revival. With their dishes, the participating burger stores will show what makes a good burger, what creation options there are and why it doesn't have to be an unhealthy fast food meal. "We are sure that the event will be met with great interest and that people will prefer a high-quality burger to a fast-food burger at the end of the day," Ostner continues.

Exclusive supporting program with impressive laser show

In addition to the many tasty burger creations, there are other delicious offerings on the festival grounds outside the competition, such as sweet waffles, crispy fries and refreshing drinks. A special highlight for the little ones is a huge burger bouncy castle made especially for the event. Visitors can also look forward to a colorful supporting program. There will be an impressive laser show on the opening day and Sascha Vollmer and Alec Völkel from The BossHoss will be at the start of their own food truck on May 9 to present their TBH burger and their new BBQ book. They will also be inviting renowned BBQ influencers to an exclusive "Meat & Greet". In the run-up to the event, the two are launching an exciting competition together - the lucky winners will be part of the "Meat & Greet", where they will not only come across cool drinks, but also have the unique opportunity to talk to Sascha Vollmer and Alec Völkel and the influencers in person. "The Champions Burger" is sponsored by 4 major international brands, including: Heineken, Pepsi, Bloody Water, the up-and-coming water brand, and Ninja, the successful US kitchen appliance manufacturer that is experiencing strong growth in Germany.
