Stages, Encounters, and Special Moments

Emsdetten thrives on its events—and on the places where people come together. Whether it’s a concert, a night at the theater, a city festival, an open-air event, a club party, or a major sporting event: the city’s cultural and social life takes place at extraordinary venues.

With Stroetmanns Fabrik, Kulturhof Deitmar, and the EMS-HALLE, Emsdetten boasts three very different stages and venues that together offer a diverse program for visitors and locals alike.

Three places. Countless experiences.

Live multi-vision show by Reinhard Pantke: ‘Norway and Sweden’
4,000 km by bike through Scandinavia
Stroetmann's factory

The globetrotter from Braunschweig spent over five months travelling through Norway and Sweden by bicycle, boat and train in 2026 and 2024, showcasing the diverse landscapes of Norway and Sweden. The journalist covered over 4,000 km on two separate journeys by bicycle alone, from spring to autumn.

The route takes him through spring-like Sweden, across the forested and lake-rich south of the country, with detours to the Göta Canal, the island of Öland, Sweden’s great lakes and the archipelago coast to the north.

In Norway, he cycled off the beaten track on routes such as the Rallarvegen, the Mjolkevegen and the Aursjøvegen, through magnificent landscapes between fjords and mountains.

In Norway, the route stretches from Oslo, through the fjord country, up to the Vesterålen islands, the island of Senja and all the way up to Tromsø. Taking the Swedish Inland Railway, the journey heads south to Jämtland in Sweden and back to eastern Norway, where it concludes amidst the vibrant colours of autumn.

As well as the majestic natural landscapes, images of the green and bustling cities of Oslo, Stockholm and Trondheim will also be presented.

As always, the multi-vision show will be presented live in a relaxed style, and audience members will also receive plenty of tips and information for their own travels. Further information is also available at www.reinhard-pantke.de


Tickets will be available from 1 December 2026 at the Emsdetten Tourist Office

Admission: €15 / concessions €13.

Concessions available for school pupils, students, the unemployed and people with disabilities.

The Celestial Night of the Tenors
20th Anniversary Tour: Friday 15 January 2027
Stroetmann's factory

The pure power of the voice: three opera tenors – unamplified, without microphones, without technical amplification

A concert evening that celebrates the essence of it all: the voice. With its 2026/2027 anniversary tour, ‘Die Himmlische Nacht der Tenöre’ looks back on 20 years of success on stage – whilst remaining true to its unique concept: opera singing in its purest form, completely unamplified, immediate and moving. At a time when live experiences are often dominated by technology, this format deliberately focuses on the opposite: absolute authenticity – carried by acoustics, the venue and artistic presence.

Three outstanding opera tenors, together with a finely tuned string ensemble, create a sonic world that requires no technical effects and is all the more powerful for it. The audience experiences not just music, but genuine, immediate sound quality – without filters, without electronic ‘amplification’.

In terms of programme, the anniversary tour returns once more to Bella Italia, the homeland of great opera composers and unforgettable melodies. Classics by Giuseppe Verdi, Giacomo Puccini, Ruggero Leoncavallo and Ernesto De Curtis form the musical core. Moments such as ‘La donna è mobile’ or ‘Passione’ become spine-tingling experiences thanks to this acoustic immediacy.

The anniversary tour’s programme brings together highlights from two decades with a festive repertoire centred around the turn of the year: great arias, timeless melodies and classic highlights that have been delighting audiences for generations. The three tenors are accompanied by a string ensemble and piano, which provide a transparent foundation that allows the voices to shine.

Whether in venerable churches or renowned concert halls: ‘The Heavenly Night of the Tenors’ is an invitation to experience opera and classical music once again as they were intended – as a pure interplay of voice, space and emotion.

Maunz and Wuff’s Good Day
as part of the ‘Pindopp’ children’s theatre series
Stroetmann's factory

For children aged 4 and over!

Wuff is a lovely chap and always in a good mood. Maunz, on the other hand, is a diva straight out of a storybook. Usually, the two get on quite well. But today it’s been raining all day and Maunz finds Wuff’s unfailing optimism rather annoying. First, she teases him with a juice-drinking contest – which, of course, she wins. Then, ‘by chance’, a fairy turns up and grants three wishes – just for Maunz, of course. Next, she tries to scare Wuff with a spooky story. But nothing works. Wuff is simply still in a good mood. Slowly but surely, Maunz gets angry and starts a proper row. But she hadn’t reckoned with Wuff’s unexpected reaction!

Tickets can be purchased from 2.30 pm for €5 at the box office.

No booking is required.

The “Pindopp” children’s theatre series is presented by Stroetmanns Fabrik and supported by Kreissparkasse Steinfurt.

Oh dear – the egg’s gone!
as part of the ‘Pindopp’ children’s theatre series
Stroetmann's factory

A play for children aged three and over!

Feder and plump Käthe live in the nesting box. The young hen Pünktchen wants to take the last free spot. But she’s not allowed to join in until she’s laid an egg. And then it happens:

Pünktchen’s first egg: particularly beautiful, large and covered in dots! But suddenly, the wonder is gone. Who has stolen it? Holmes, the farm dog, sets out on a detective mission. There are plenty of suspects, but none

wants to admit to it! Elisa the young cat loves playing with balls – perhaps with the egg too? Or was Shirley the ewe the thief? What was Kalle the frog doing when he sneaked away from the frog concert? Or

could Rosalinde the sow be the culprit?

Bernd Stelter
Sunshine in my heart, nonsense in my head!
Stroetmann's factory

Songs are wonderful. You can tell a story in five minutes.

That would be rather difficult to do in a piece of prose. Songs have melody and rhythm. A song is a feeling. Some songs make you laugh; others bring a tear to your eye. A song can be funny or sad, cheerful or melancholic.

Bernd Stelter writes songs the way other people keep a diary. You can hear how he was feeling at the time. Did he have sunshine in his heart or nonsense in his head? Or both?

‘Sunshine in his heart, nonsense in his head!’ The song recital with Bernd Stelter is all of these things: a life in songs, sometimes loud, sometimes quiet, sometimes cheerful and then melancholic again. And the most important thing is: when you leave the hall after two hours of laughing and dreaming, singing and smiling, you’re sure to feel great.
