This past weekend, Berlin witnessed world-class athletics as the Internationales Stadionfest (ISTAF) took over the Olympic Stadium.
Once again, Spielbank Berlin was present as a major partner and devoted supporter. At the heart of its involvement: the presentation of three thrilling disciplines—the men’s mile, the women’s 100-meter sprint, and women’s long jump—highlighting passionate support for sports in the capital.

The iconic men’s mile excited fans with a dramatic race, featuring top runner Robert Farken going for a new record in front of a home crowd. In the legendary women’s 100-meter sprint, local hero Gina Lückenkemper electrified spectators with a strong performance, while Olympic champion Malaika Mihambo’s powerful jumps in the women’s long jump brought the crowd to its feet with standing ovations.
Commitment to Berlin—beyond the stadium
For many years, Spielbank Berlin has ensured that sporting highlights like ISTAF are possible, offering a platform for the diversity of Berlin’s community. Supporting sports, culture, and social projects is firmly anchored in the company philosophy. The ISTAF weekend in 2025 once again showed how impressive this commitment is, uniting and inspiring Berliners from all walks of life.
Whether in elite sports, at cultural highlights like the Pyronale, or through targeted support for social projects: Spielbank Berlin remains a dedicated partner and driving force for a vibrant, fair, and diverse Berlin—and is already looking forward to many more unforgettable moments at the heart of the city.
