Sunday Morning Pint
The "Frühschoppen" (morning pint) format, starting at 11 a.m., has been a well-established fixture on the Burgwiese for years. The organizers focus on a relaxed atmosphere: picnic blankets, snacks from a food stand on site, families with children, and older concertgoers mingle. The program usually ends around 4 or 5 p.m. after the afternoon concert.
Program June 14
The Musikkorps Wittekind Wildeshausen opens with its brass music repertoire. In the afternoon, the Speelkoppel Düngstrup brings North German folk music and Low German pieces to the stage — a form of regional musical tradition that has a loyal following in the region.

Burgwiese as an Open-Air Stage
The Burgwiese is located on the Wildeshausen Burgberg and, together with it, forms one of the most beautiful natural areas in the city center. The gently sloping meadow and the adjacent slope offer a natural open-air arena where the concert stage combines with a picnic atmosphere. Stadtmarketing has been using this location for years for Sunday concert formats that offer a regular spot for relaxed hours during the summer.
Opening June 14, 2026
The season opening on Sunday, June 14, 2026, will be presented by Musikkorps Wittekind Wildeshausen starting at 11 a.m. with a "Frühschoppen" (morning pint) concert. In the afternoon, Speelkoppel Düngstrup will perform with Low German music and regional repertoire. The combination of brass music in the morning and North German folk program in the afternoon appeals to a broad audience.
Musikkorps Wittekind Wildeshausen
The Musikkorps Wittekind is one of the most traditional brass music associations in the district of Oldenburg. With its classical brass music repertoire and North German folk tunes, it has shaped the musical life of the city for decades and is a regular guest on the Burgwiese.
