Western, Line Dance and Beach on Usedom
Country music and line dancing have a vibrant scene in Germany with their own dance groups, bands, and festivals. The Countryfest Koserow is one of the few open-air country festivals directly on the Baltic Sea beach — a contrast that makes it appealing: cowboy hats, boots, plaid shirts, and the sea in the background.
The venue is the beach promenade of Koserow, a Baltic Sea resort located at the narrowest point of Usedom between Streckelsberg and Achterwasser. The promenade hosts the stage, dance floor, and stalls for country fashion and handicrafts. Line dance groups from all over Germany and sometimes from abroad perform on both festival days.
Musically, the program ranges from classic 1950s country and rockabilly to contemporary country-pop music. Live bands alternate with DJ sets, interspersed with choreographed dance performances. The festival is designed to be dance-friendly — those who want to learn steps can join in the open dance sessions.
Koserow, along with Zempin, Loddin, and Ückeritz, belongs to the 'Amber Baths Usedom' (Bernsteinbäder Usedom) and is located in the Vorpommern-Greifswald district. The Countryfest is part of the annual program of the Koserow Tourist Information and is officially advertised on bernsteinbaeder-usedom.de.
The 26th Countryfest Koserow on August 14 and 15, 2026, continues the long-standing tradition of this summer festival on Usedom. The venue is, as usual, the beach promenade, where a stage, dance floor, and stalls will be set up. The program includes live country bands, line dance choreographies by numerous dance groups, and open dance sessions where guests can learn steps. The festival is listed as a regular event in the calendar of the Amber Baths Usedom on bernsteinbaeder-usedom.de; specific bands and the schedule will be published in the weeks leading up to the event.
The detailed program of bands and dance groups for the 26th edition in 2026 will be published by the Koserow Tourist Information in good time before the event. Constant elements include:
