Festival MV: Jubilee concert with World Star Blomstedt in Wismar!

On June 13, 2025, the time has come again: In Wismar, the kick-off of the Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania festival is celebrated-the 35th anniversary of the renowned classical festival. The three -month music summer begins this weekend, which comes up with a total of 136 events until September 14th. Classic lovers get their money's worth in the historic St. Georgen Church. The performance, led by the world's oldest active headlighter Herbert Blomstedt, serves a program with a festival overture and works by Bach and Beethoven. The sound of the NDR Elbphilharmonie Orchester enchanted the sold -out house, while Prime Minister Manuela Schwesig thanked the organizers for their commitment and warmly congratulated the anniversary. n-tv.de reports on the close connection of the festival with the region.

A look at the festival history shows that the first concert on May 13, 1990 could take place in the Staatstheater Schwerin. Since then, the festival has developed into one of the most popular classic events in Germany and has not only attracted die -hard music lovers, but also numerous families. At this festival, not only large artists such as the violinist Daniel Hope regularly conquered the stages, but also the festival director Ursula Haselböck emphasizes the connecting effect of music that brings people together.

a hobby for every taste

The extensive program includes a variety of places, including manor houses, churches, parks and even workshops. Other highlights include the youth competition "Young Elite" and various offers that cover both E and U-Music. A special highlight in addition to the numerous concerts is the selection of the winner in Residence, which will complete 20 appearances: the talented Russian cellist Anastasia Kobekina.

Special events such as the crossover concert on July 5th in the Schlosspark Fleesensee promise exciting musical encounters. Here are artists such as Johannes Strate von Revolverheld, the pianist Sebastian Knauer as well as the jazz pianist Martin Tingvall and Malou Lovis, the winner of "The Voice of Germany", on stage.

festive highlights

An absolute highlight of the summer will be the open-air weekend on August 23 and 24 in the picturesque Bothmer Castle, in which the NDR Bigband will inspire the audience with a Heinz-Erhardt program. This special experience is made humorous with Annette Frier and Dietmar Bär. The festival will end up on September 14th in the Konzertkirche Neubrandenburg with a concert by Anastasia Kobekina and the NDR Radiophilharmonie.

Another event that increases the anticipation for the festival is the planned birthday party for the founding concert of the MV Festival in Ulrichshusen at the end of July. The popular concerts at the state stud in Redefin and in the Festival barn of Ulrichshusen will surely also be a crowd -puller this year.
