Summer Evenings at Schaufenster Fischereihafen
When the stage is set up at Schaufenster Fischereihafen on Thursdays, Bremerhaven knows: it's Music Summer. Since 2009, the free concert series has transformed the market square in the fishing harbor into an open-air meeting place by the water week after week. In 2026, the series runs from June 4th to September 10th — 15 Thursdays, 15 concerts, starting at 7 PM each evening, with free admission.
First Local Heroes, Then World Hits
The program has two faces. June is dedicated to Local Heroes — regional bands like Blancker Sound, 90s Unlimited, Rockport, or Delicious Divine, giving the Bremerhaven music scene a big stage. From July, it becomes international: tribute bands bring hits by the Beatles, ABBA, Queen, Pink Floyd, Kiss, and other icons back to life. This concept mixes local talent promotion with the grand sound of music history — a concept that attracts around 50,000 people annually.
Free Admission, Maritime Setting
Up to 4,000 guests can fit in the square on a busy evening. Admission is free, but donations are welcome. The setting is part of the special appeal: an open-air concert, with the brick buildings of the fishing harbor behind, surrounded by gastronomy and the maritime flair of the port city. The 2026 edition, with its particularly strong lineup, is considered a record year.
In the Heart of the Fishing Harbor
The venue is the market square at Schaufenster Fischereihafen in Bremerhaven, one of the city's liveliest districts with restaurants, shops, and harbor history. Those who combine the concert evening with a stroll through the fishing harbor experience Bremerhaven's summer culture in its purest form.
Bremerhaven Music Summer — edition 2026
From June 4th to September 10th, 2026, bands will play on 15 Thursdays on the market square at Schaufenster Fischereihafen, starting at 7 PM each evening with free admission. June is traditionally dedicated to the Local Heroes from the Bremerhaven music scene — in 2026 featuring Blancker Sound, 90s Unlimited, Rockport, and Delicious Divine. From July, the tribute bands take over: Sir Williams (Robbie Williams), Kissin' Time (Kiss), The Oases (Oasis), 4Swedes (ABBA), ReCartney (Beatles), Vier Gewinnt! (Die Fantastischen Vier), Rhiannon (Fleetwood Mac), Floyd Unlimited (Pink Floyd), Alex im Westerland (German Punk & Rock), inToTos (Toto), and concluding with MerQury (Queen). Up to 4,000 guests per evening enjoy the concerts in the maritime setting of the fishing harbor.
