The 2027 International History Olympiad will feature numerous tours to sites in and around Berlin. As was the case at the 2025 Olympiad, the exact times and locations of each field trip will only be posted in advance of event selection. However, a list of projected field trip and walking tour destinations will be posted in advance of the opening of registration in late November 2026. The field trip and walking tour destinations offered at the 2025 Olympiad are listed below for reference. We expect a similar number and variety of destinations to be available in 2027.
