25 Years of Sunday Tradition in the Kurpark

For 25 years, the Kurpark-Konzerte have been a firm fixture of Wilhelmshaven's summer program. The format is convincingly simple: on around eight Sundays between May and September, selected ensembles perform at the music pavilion in the Kurpark. Performances always begin at 11:00 AM, and the concerts are free. Spar + Bau Wilhelmshaven, a traditional Wilhelmshaven housing association, sponsors the series, making it a contribution from the local economy to the city's quality of life.

Mother's Day Concert with Naval Music Corps

The opening concert on May 10, 2026, traditionally coincides with Mother's Day and is performed by the Wilhelmshaven Naval Music Corps. The renowned ensemble, led by Frigate Captain Matthias Prock, is a staple in the North German music scene. A classical concert program of marches, waltzes, and symphonic wind music makes the opening a festive family occasion.

Further Ensembles Throughout the Summer

Throughout the summer months, further concerts by various ensembles follow — from Moorland Pipes & Drums, a regional pipe band, to choirs and big bands, and soloists. The program varies depending on the year and the availability of the bands. In total, the series comprises about eight concerts. Those looking for a relaxed Sunday in the green with good music will find a reliable offering here. Blankets, folding chairs, and possibly a sun hat are recommended.
