Musical diversity in the new year!

The new year gets off to a varied start! In January and February, the City of Salzgitter's Department of Culture invites you to blues, rock, heavy metal sounds and a play about friendship. A great start to 2026!

Zed Mitchell opens the musical events organized by the City of Salzgitter's Department of Culture.

The first concert in the blues series can be experienced on the last day of January: Saturday, January 31 (8 p.m. Kniestedter Kirche in Salzgitter-Bad): Zed Mitchell returns to his fans and all music-loving people with a lot of verve and cheerfulness. With "Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha.....", the guitar master is releasing his highly anticipated eighth studio album, from which he will be presenting several songs at the Kniki. The musical jack-of-all-trades spent more than a year working on his new songs in his Blue Eyes Studio in Düsseldorf. And the result is something to be proud of.

Mandowar present their new album in the Kniestedt church.

Mandowar heats things up - literally! With their new album "Grilling in the Name of", the band takes heavy metal and rock classics and puts them straight on the grill. The musical results can be heard onSaturday, February 7 (from 8 p.m. in the Kniestedt church): Crazy versions served sizzling hot somewhere between polka and country - sometimes rare, sometimes well done, but always unmistakably Mandowar! The incomparable combination of mandolin, guitar and bass transforms legendary headbanger anthems into a juicy acoustic BBQ for the ears....

Marley's Ghost has many fans in Salzgitter.

Germany's number one Bob Marley tribute band is performing in Salzgitter again! On Friday, February 27, Marley's Ghost will be performing(7.30 pm, Kulturscheune in Lebenstedt). The band was formed in 2015 from the internationally active reggae formation "Sebastian Sturm & Exile Airline", who have always seen Bob Marley's music as the greatest inspiration for their own songs. With their infectious, authentic and unrivaled energy, Marley's Ghost now not only conveys the music and the many great songs of Bob Marley, but also his message.

The puppet theater Die Complizen is dedicated to the theme of friendship.

Can a sheep be friends with a bull? The answer is given by the puppet theater Die Complizen on Sunday, February 15, at 3 p.m. in the Kniestedt church with Charlotte.

Charlotte is, well, headstrong. Even when it comes to choosing her friends. Is there anything better than romping around in the mud with Eduard the pig? Maybe headbutting with Kunibert the bull. "Tz-tz-tz", me-, me-, grumble the old sheep, "a sheep and a bull, that's never happened before."

Then two sheep disappear - and sheepdog Charly can no longer see or hear so well. And now? Will Charlotte find the sheep? Can the friends help? What do the old people say?

This refreshing and musical production with interactive elements answers all these questions and also shows your audience that friends can be different...

The play is suitable for children aged 4 and over.
