Synth-Pop Legends Live as Part of the Bad Nenndorf State Garden Show 2026
The Bad Nenndorf State Garden Show 2026 transforms the entire Kurpark area into a green event stage from spring to autumn. In addition to gardens, themed worlds, and hands-on activities, the organizers are focusing on a high-caliber concert program – and Alphaville is among the undisputed highlights. On June 5, 2026, Marian Gold and the band will take the main stage to present a cross-section of around four decades of band history.
Founded in Münster in 1982, Alphaville is one of the most influential German bands in international pop history. With "Forever Young," the trio around singer Marian Gold created an anthem that has long connected generations and is understood across cultural borders. "Big in Japan," "Sounds Like a Melody," and "Dance with Me" complement a repertoire that remains present worldwide on festival stages, in films, and on streaming playlists to this day. Despite changing line-ups, Marian Gold has stood for the band's unmistakable voice for over forty years.
The open-air concert will take place on the main stage of the State Garden Show – a venue in the middle of the historic Bad Nenndorf Kurpark with its old trees, restored colonnades, and thematic garden cabinets. Admission is tailored to the concert evening; a separate ticket is required. Whether the day ticket for the garden show is included in the concert price or must be purchased as an additional option will be communicated by the organizers via their website.
Bad Nenndorf, located in the Schaumburg district, will become a cultural stage for Lower Saxony for several months in 2026. The State Garden Show will attract hundreds of thousands of visitors to the spa town, combining garden art with concerts, readings, sports, and family activities. The Alphaville concert forms one of the musical cornerstones of the summer program and is aimed at lovers of the elegiac 1980s sound as well as younger listeners who have long discovered "Forever Young" via Spotify and TikTok.
The Bad Nenndorf Kurpark offers a special open-air backdrop in early summer: old trees, blooming themed gardens, and the historic colonnades frame the main stage of the State Garden Show. Starting at 6:00 PM, the concert utilizes the last hours of daylight, transitioning into the blue hour – ideal for Alphaville's atmospheric soundscape.
The evening's lineup will be headlined by Alphaville. The organizer will provide information about potential support acts or opening bands on the official website of the State Garden Show. Based on experience, the band typically performs concerts lasting 90 to 120 minutes, featuring hits from all phases of their career.
The exact program and setlist will be published by the organizer in spring 2026. The structure follows the established cornerstones of an Alphaville concert:
The State Garden Show will provide information about any opening acts, the exact setlist, and special guests on its event page. It is recommended to check the official website shortly before the concert date.
