Aladin is a poor but kind-hearted boy who supports himself and his mother with odd jobs. Monkey Balu is his loyal companion. One day, Aladin meets a rather unfriendly "guy" at the bazaar who does not wish to be recognized. It turns out to be Princess Saida. She has sneaked out of the palace to experience life outside the palace walls. Moreover, she wants to escape from the Grand Vizier Jaffar, who wants to marry her. However, Jaffar is actually a wicked sorcerer! Saida's outing is short-lived as Jaffar sends his palace guards to capture the runaway. Aladin, who is very taken with the courageous and headstrong princess, wants to help her, but gets captured by Jaffar himself. To be freed, Jaffar orders Aladin to bring him a mysterious lamp from a cave. Aladin does acquire the lamp but does not hand it over when he realizes that Jaffar is playing a trick on him. In a fit of rage, Jaffar leaves Aladin behind in the cave with the lamp. Aladin manages to escape! What a surprise when a genie appears from the lamp, who can even grant wishes. However, only three wishes! One brings Aladin and Balu back to the palace. Unfortunately, they arrive too late. Jaffar has kidnapped Princess Saida! Aladin sets out with his genie, Balu, and a flying carpet on an adventurous quest to rescue Saida!

Whether the carpet will fly in the end, you will have to find out for yourself! Therefore, come to the Biberach Schützentheater!

Over generations, popular: Pittiplatsch has been enchanting audiences since 1962. Few childhood figures have achieved such cult status as the little goblin Pittiplatsch.

Since his first television appearance in Sandmännchen, he has been one of the most well-known puppet characters in Germany. With his cheeky nature, big heart, and charming wonder ("Oh my nose!"), he has been creating unforgettable moments for decades – across generations. What began as a short television sequence is now a true stage highlight for both children and adults. Pittiplatsch and his friends regularly go on tour to take their audience on an imaginative journey.

Colorful stage adventures with original characters

In the live show, the beloved characters perform on a lovingly crafted puppet stage – professionally led by the original ensemble. Included are:

Schnatterinchen, the clever duck with the big
heart Mr. Fox and Mrs. Magpie, who often tease each other but are actually best friends
Mischka-Bear and Moppi, who complete the ensemble with wit and charm

Together they experience funny stories, sing cheerful songs, and entertain the audience with child-friendly humor.

Doors open: 09:30 AM

Welcome to the home of Jever Pilsener.

Jever Pilsener comes from Jever. And that is in a very special part of Germany: in Friesland. The water, the air, the light, and last but not least, the harsh climate have shaped the Frisian landscape and the Jever Pilsener. We invite you to explore the secrets of Jever – with an exciting brewery tour!

❗As a precaution, we would like to point out that our brewing facility is not barrier-free. There are longer walking paths and stairs to navigate. Therefore, the tour is unfortunately not suitable for people with walking disabilities and wheelchair users.

The meeting point for the tour (not barrier-free) is the Hopfenkarre on Theodor-Fetköter-Straße near the Jever shop. The visit begins with a knowledgeable tour of the historic, lovingly arranged brewery museum. This is followed by an insight into our modern brewing facility, from the brew house to the bottling line, where up to 60,000 bottles per hour are filled.
❗Please note:
The ongoing bottling process is likely to take place on weekdays; however, due to possible maintenance, cleaning, and setup work, this is not guaranteed in every case. Especially on Friday afternoons and Saturdays, the bottling is relatively unlikely to be in operation. We kindly ask for your understanding in advance.

After the tour, a varied tasting of our Jever beers awaits you in the pub "Braupfanne" – part of the brewery's taproom "Haus der Getreuen" (for guests aged 16 and over). Do you know all seven varieties? Our non-alcoholic options Jever Fun, Jever Fun 0.0%, Jever Fun Lemon, and Jever Fun Blood Orange are available. And of course, our classic Jever Pilsener, the calorie-reduced Jever Light, and the hoppy-spicy Jever STRONG as well. Jever Pilsener and Jever Fun are offered as freshly tapped draft beer. To accompany the tasting, we will serve you small pretzel snacks. Adults will also receive a keepsake.

For fans and guitar gourmets worldwide, Tommy Emmanuel's status as a trailblazer for the contemporary six-string scene is indisputable – rightly so, given the instrumental and compositional superlatives that the Australian has always presented on studio albums and stages.
He will showcase his high art in a few select dates in the summer of 2026 in Germany.

According to the legendary Eric Clapton, he is "the greatest guitarist I have ever seen," and has elevated the acoustic subgenre to a completely new level with his works. Emmanuel has made sophisticated craftsmanship accessible to the mainstream with both stylistically diverse original compositions and cover versions of well-known pieces.

In 2026, Tommy Emmanuel will embark on a world tour again – together with "Best of Tommysongs," an artistic assessment that reflects on the past and looks forward to future music at the same time. The program presented includes both timeless Tommy classics as well as a few surprises and, last but not least, a glimpse of what Mr. Fingerstyle has in store beyond 2026…

Tommy Emmanuel takes the stage solo. Just him and his guitar – that's all it takes for a grand show. The audience is invited to close their eyes and truly feel like they are hearing a whole band.

Doors: 1 hour before the event starts

The Queen’s Six from Windsor Castle sing daily on behalf of Her Majesty in St. George's Chapel and are celebrated worldwide by audiences and the press alike with frenzied applause. “On Her Majesty’s Secret Service” musically leads into the world of secrecy and betrayal through the centuries. With pieces from their upcoming album and a cappella music from spies in the royal courts of England from the Renaissance to brand new arrangements of James Bond songs, there is something for every musical taste. Works by Byrd, Tallis to Bob Chilcott & Billie Eilish ("no time to die") will be performed.

The professional ensemble was founded in 2008 to commemorate the 450th Coronation Anniversary of Queen Elizabeth I. They regularly perform for the Royal Family – both at private and state receptions. Most recently, they were part of the St. George's Chapel Choir seen by over 4 billion people on television during the funeral of Prince Philip in April 2021 and the burial of Queen Elizabeth II in September 2022.

Doors open at 6:30 PM.

At the edges of the roads and in the meadows, often more awaits than one might suspect at first glance. Together with herbal educator Sylvia Scheiblegger, we head out into nature to take a closer look at the green companions on the ground.

The aim is to accurately identify the plants and understand how they can be used in the kitchen or for well-being. In this way, the hike bridges the past: Sylvia Scheiblegger shares stories from a time when the connection to the plant world was part of everyday life, bringing old legends and myths to life. A collective discovery that sharpens the perception of the seemingly inconspicuous.

"Aus voller Kehle für die Seele" is the new series at Rosenau and is aimed at all people who love to sing! We really mean everyone: those who think they can't sing at all, those who can sing a little, or those who often and enjoyably do. "Aus voller Kehle für die Seele" is not a normal choir with regular dates and performances. It's actually not a choir at all! It's an appointment for singing, where the fun should be in the foreground: the fun of singing together, the fun of trying out and experimenting, and also the fun of failing together. Singing is done without sheet music, with the lyrics projected onto a screen. It can be carefree and wild.

Patrick Bopp alias Memphis is part of the Stuttgart vocal comedy group "Füenf" and acts as the musical moderator in the "Singenden Gasthaus." He sings along, conducts, motivates, offers accompaniment, and plays the piano. Songs will be sung that can be sung: from rock and pop songs, 1920s couplets, folk songs, children's songs, rap, ska to yodeling. Everything is possible: from ABBA, Die Toten Hosen, Heino, Schubert songs, Rio Reiser to Ed Sheeran. Everyone can make their own suggestions, which can be implemented immediately if possible or prepared for the next time. It's planned for 2 x 45 minutes, with a break in between, the hall is seated, and the bar is open.

Doors open & service starts at 6:00 PM

More than 58 million people worldwide have already visited the exhibition.
From April 24, 2026, the current themed exhibition “KÖRPERWELTEN – VITAL” will be presented at MCC Halle Münsterland and invites visitors on a fascinating journey into the inner workings of the human body.
In impressive exhibits, it becomes visible how lifestyle, movement, nutrition, and emotions influence our physical and mental health. “VITAL” stands for the power inherent in our bodies – and for the ability to enhance health and vitality through conscious choices and to gain quality of life.
KÖRPERWELTEN vividly illustrates what each of us can do to preserve our health and high quality of life for as long as possible. There are only a few events that change our perspective on ourselves so profoundly!
All specimens displayed in the exhibition are real. They come from individuals who, during their lifetime, declared that their bodies should be available after their death for the education of doctors and interested laypeople.

From time to time, the little raven behaves a bit badly. Now his birthday is approaching, and in order to receive gifts, he must become good from one day to the next. How is that supposed to work?

Christian Bischof, an internationally sought-after organist,
thrills his audience with a masterful combination of technical brilliance and nuanced interpretation.
Originally from Bamberg, Bischof’s musical shaping took place at the renowned music high school of the Regensburger Domspatzen. From 2013 to 2023, he took over the musical leadership at the St. Margaret parish church in Munich. There, he not only fully developed his talent as a church musician and organist but also set new impulses. Since 2023, Bischof has increasingly focused on his role as the organist and artistic director of the local organ concerts. At the same time, he took on the role of organ expert, for which he is responsible for the organ community in the Archdiocese of Munich and Freising. This complements his position as deputy diocesan music director, which he has held since 2020.
For further studies in church music and organ, Bischof went to the University of Music Würzburg and later to Sweden. He was a scholarship holder of the Cusanuswerk and completed his studies in 2011 with a master class diploma in organ. His further career has been marked by significant musical contributions at various locations and projects, including organ restorations and the founding of new concert series. As a lecturer, masterclass leader, and juror, Bischof has passed on his expertise and is sought after as a concert organist internationally. CD recordings have been produced for the label Organum Classic and Spektral, among others.

Special Spanish Evening with Roger Tristao Adao:
„Viva Sevilla - Gitarrenmusik aus Spanien und Südamerika“

Flamenco music and the classical guitar are said to be like two sides of a mountain leading to the same peak.
Roger Tristao Adao, a classically trained guitarist, has engaged with the playing techniques of flamenco. He presents a program in which he juxtaposes original dances like Sevillanas, Alegrias, or Soleares with combined pieces of the same title.

The Spanish composers whose works will be heard this evening drew their inspiration from folk music. The originally improvised dances entered classical Spanish music through arrangements by Isaac Albèniz, Francesco Tarrega, or Enrique Granados.
They are fully composed masterpieces that have not lost any of the rhythmic power and original magic of flamenco. The tension arc of this contrasting program ranges from delicate melancholy to fiery rhythms.

The audience will be guided through the program with short explanations.

Doors open at 19:00

Admission: 19:00

With sheep, her worldwide success began: Leonie Swann's debut, “Glennkill” – a murder case solved by a flock of sheep – became an international bestseller, translated into more than thirty languages, and adapted into a film this year. Born in 1975 near Munich and long at home in England, Leonie Swann combines crime, philosophical thought, and British humor at its best. Now she returns to the world of sheep with “Widdersehen” (DuMont): Amidst the English pastoral landscape, quirky characters, and existential questions, a profound crime novel unfolds.
