About Sunday Concerts Kurpark

The Sunday Concerts in the Kurpark Bruchhausen-Vilsen are among the oldest and most beautiful concert series in the Diepholz district. Since 1976, the municipal administration has been organizing around 20 open-air concerts in the Kurpark bandstand every summer. 2026 will be a special year: on August 30th, the series celebrates its 50th anniversary. The season begins on May 1st, 2026, and runs every Sunday until the end of August. Brass bands, shanty choirs, church choirs, and regional bands perform on stage. Admission is traditionally free, and coffee and cake are available in the Kurpark.

50 Years of Sunday Concerts

In 2026, the start of the Sunday Concerts in the Kurpark Bruchhausen-Vilsen marks its 50th anniversary. What began as a small initiative in 1976 has developed into the most traditional concert series in the municipality. Every Sunday during the season, guests and locals gather in the bandstand to enjoy live music under the open sky — and have done so for five decades without interruption.

Bandstand as an Iconic Venue

The bandstand in the Kurpark is an architectural highlight. The shell, open at the top and dating from the 1970s, provides space for a small band or choir and ensures natural acoustics. The seating on the lawn in front of the bandstand is freely accessible; many visitors bring their own blankets and chairs.

Program Profile

The musical profile of the series is deliberately broad: brass bands, shanty choirs, church choirs, regional bands, and youth brass bands form the core. This appeals to all generations and offers a diversity that has become rare in this form. Every Sunday, a different ensemble performs — an ideal way to get to know the regional music scene.

Free Admission, Café, and Sociability

Admission to the Sunday Concerts is free. Coffee and cake are available on-site, often from the club kitchen. The Sunday Concerts are therefore not just a musical event, but also a social meeting point and a popular Sunday outing for families and seniors.
