Berlin Tip: Bubble Ball Soccer Berlin

Want to try something really cool with your friends? Then bubble soccer is just right for you.

Berlin is a super trendy and exciting city with lots to offer. If you’re planning your visit to northern Germany, bubble ball should definitely be on your bucket list. This trending sport will blow you away from the first minute, literally.

How does this trending sport actually work?

Imagine a mix of soccer, bumper cars, and American football. At the start of the game, everyone steps into a huge inflatable ball from head to knees, called a bubble ball. Four to five players compete per team, and as soon as the whistle blows, it’s time to go after your opponents. The transparent ball around your body acts like an airbag.

Where does the sport come from?

Hard to believe, but bubble ball was invented in Norway for a TV show called Golden Goal. The English really made it popular by starting to offer it to everyone.

Where can I play bubble soccer?

Our hostel is the ideal starting point for your bubble ball adventure. You have several providers to choose from, all located around Berlin Kreuzberg. One of them is FUSSBALL-ABC Arena in Hohenschönhausen. Kicker World in Spandau also has a huge range of indoor soccer options.
