Don't know how you should do it, but I would do it the other way round. Christmas in Amsterdam and New Year's Eve in Berlin.

Either way for me..plenty of parties,clubs,drinking in both cities.

I'd guess that the parties will be bigger in Berlin,so if that's what you like then I'd go with #1 suggestion...

Never heard about plenty of parties and so on at Christmas day in Berlin. No idea about what happend in Amsterdam but all over in Germany it's more a family thing at this date.

I was thinking about New Years Eve..but you are right about Christmas.

Christmas Eve/Day is pretty much a family affair in most of Europe I guess....

seen the new year in Amsterdam 3 or 4 times and enjoyed it every time, don't expect parties in either city at xmas. But as you have made no mention of what you are looking for it is hard to give a proper answer. But I much prefer Amsterdam than Berlin.
