SPO leuchtet — Light meets Poetry

The 2025 edition established the concept of combining the light art festival with the North Frisian Biikebrennen — a blend of contemporary art and ancient folk custom, celebrated in this form for the first time in Sankt Peter-Ording. Visitors strolled daily between 5 PM and 9 PM through the illuminated spa district, with fairy tale texts and poetry accompanying the light displays. On Biike Saturday, the torchlight procession started at Erlebnis-Hus, and the large bonfire was lit at Buhne-Platz. The format was so well-received that it will continue in almost identical structure in 2026.
