Anticipation is building: the popular event series Legends at the Sea will take place next year on Friday, May 29, 2026, and Saturday, May 30, 2026, against the stunning backdrop of Büsum Beach. Over two evenings, for the 8th time, the organizers Walter System and MEWES Entertainment Group will present outstanding music legends directly at the UNESCO World Heritage Wadden Sea. Even before the official start of advance ticket sales for the two legendary evenings, the main act for Saturday has already been confirmed: on May 30, 2026, none other than popular pop singer Johannes Oerding will take to the Watt Grandstand at Legends at the Sea.
This highlight of the German music scene promises a spectacular live experience that will take the audience on a musical journey and make hearts beat in rhythm with the legends.
The multi-platinum and gold-awarded singer-songwriter Johannes Oerding has been a permanent fixture in the German music landscape for many years. His current live shows are characterized by a warm, personal atmosphere in which he presents a powerful mix of emotional ballads and energetic pop.
With more than 800,000 albums sold, multiple award-winning releases such as „Alles brennt“, and over 438 million streams of his songs, Oerding is one of the most successful German live artists of his generation. The Büsum audience can look forward to an evening filled with musical intensity, charismatic stage presence, and songs that have long secured their place in the collective memory. He already demonstrated this during his open-air shows in summer 2025, when he celebrated his comeback on the country’s biggest stages in front of more than 180,000 people.
The success of the Hamburg-based artist lies in his inspiring lyrics, which invite listeners to dream, reflect, and empathize. Many of his singles and albums have been honored with platinum and gold status.
In 2026, the Legends weekend will once again bring major music icons to the incomparable open-air stage directly at the UNESCO World Heritage Wadden Sea. An unforgettable and atmospheric evening for young and old alike is guaranteed. Secure your tickets now and be part of it!
Doors open at 6:00 p.m., show starts at 8:00 p.m.
