About MeerPfingsten

Großenbrode — Schleswig-Holstein's easternmost Baltic Sea spa, directly opposite Fehmarn — transforms into an open-air festival mile on the South Beach at Whitsun. From May 23rd to 25th, 2026, the MeerBühne invites you for three days of diverse family entertainment: morning Zumba sessions, children's programs with Ben the Bear, drum shows, band concerts with Maniax and Boerny & die TriTops, performances by the Joyful Gospel Choir, and brass bands on Whit Monday. Sunday features an open-air church service, plus an antiques and flea market — Whitsun right by the sea.

The Baltic Sea Spa Town of Großenbrode

Großenbrode is located on the Bay of Lübeck in the district of Ostholstein in the state of Schleswig-Holstein — a small peninsula directly opposite the island of Fehmarn, connected by the Fehmarn Belt Bridge. The municipality is a Baltic Sea spa and thrives on its long sandy beaches, maritime charm, and active tourism infrastructure. In summer, Großenbrode is a popular destination for families, surfers, and nature tourists.

MeerPfingsten — Three Days on the Beach

The MeerPfingsten festival format has established itself as Großenbrode's Whitsun weekend highlight. On the MeerBühne on the South Beach, concerts, interactive programs, and sporting activities are spread over three days. The concept combines family entertainment with the maritime character of the Baltic Sea beach — Whitsun right on the water, with seagulls in the background and the sea breeze.

The 2026 Program — Confirmed Acts

The official Tourist Information office of Großenbrode confirms the following program items:

Zumba Sessions — morning exercise program
Ben the Bear — children's program with a costumed mascot

The South Beach as a Stage

Großenbrode's South Beach is one of the busiest beaches in the region during the summer — and in Whitsun 2026, it becomes the festival stage. The MeerBühne is a modular open-air construction right on the water; the audience sits or stands on the sand or on the meadows near the shore. In case of bad weather, individual program items will be moved to covered areas.

In the District of Ostholstein

Großenbrode belongs to the district of Ostholstein in the state of Schleswig-Holstein — the easternmost region of the state, with Fehmarn as its most prominent part. Access via the A1 and B207 makes Großenbrode reachable for day trips from Hamburg, Lübeck, and Kiel.
