According to promoter Reset Production, the large-scale concert series David Bowie Symphony - The Celebration Concert will visit multiple German cities in November 2026.

Symphonic Bowie tribute tour hits German concert halls

The production David Bowie Symphony - The Celebration Concert, performed by Milan Devinne and The Thin White Duke Orchestra, is announced as a tribute that marks the 10th anniversary of Bowie’s passing and focuses on his biggest songs in orchestral arrangements.

The Berlin stop is scheduled for November 19, 2026 at Admiralspalast, a central theatre in the capital, while cities such as Kiel (Konzerthaus am Schloss) and Lüneburg (Libeskind Auditorium at Leuphana University) underline how far the show travels across the country.

Reset Production’s tour information provides the full list of cities and dates.

Further Bowie tributes in Bonn, Siegburg and Munich

Alongside the symphonic project, several other Bowie tribute shows are on the road in 2026, giving fans different ways to experience his songs live. In Bonn, the band Heroes plays a dedicated Bowie set at the SWB-Sommerfestival Rheinaue at Parkrestaurant Rheinaue; the listing gives August 6, 2026 at 7:30 p.m. as the show time, noting that the event is already sold out and that tickets originally started at €14. The Bonn festival listing confirms date, venue and ticket status.

The tribute band Heroes also appears in national ticketing listings: Eventim promotes a concert under the simple title Heroes for November 28, 2026 at Kubana Live Club in Siegburg, again marketed as a David Bowie Tribute show by what it calls Germany’s most-booked Bowie tribute band. In addition, the British stage production Bowie Experience is scheduled to bring a West End-style Bowie concert to the Circus Krone building in Munich on May 22, 2026, with German city marketing and ticketing pages highlighting its focus on hits from Space Oddity through Heroes and Let’s Dance, with tickets sold via platforms like München Ticket and Eventim.

What’s next for Bowie on screen and in Berlin

While tribute tours keep David Bowie’s songs alive on stage, television and cinema projects are set to deepen the picture of his career. BBC Pop Music Television has commissioned a 90-minute documentary titled Bowie in Berlin (working title), planned for BBC Two and BBC iPlayer in autumn 2026 to mark the 50th anniversary of Bowie’s move to Berlin in 1976. The BBC announcement credits director Francis Whately, known for earlier Bowie films such as David Bowie: Five Years and David Bowie: The Last Five Years, and positions the new documentary as an in-depth look at the so?called Berlin years around the albums Low, “Heroes” and Lodger.

In parallel, 2025 and 2026 also see the release of the feature documentary Bowie: The Final Act, which focuses on Bowie’s final creative decade and the making of his last album Blackstar. Trailers and release announcements describe cinema screenings from late December 2025 in the UK, with television broadcasts on Channel 4 and ARTE in January 2026. Together with the announced BBC film about his Berlin period, this points to a concentrated media presence around Bowie’s legacy roughly ten years after his death, with the German capital again playing a central role in the story.

How David Bowie’s work is preserved and reissued

David Bowie’s catalogue continues to be curated through large box sets that collect phases of his career. In July 2025, label Parlophone announced the release of the box set David Bowie 6. I Can’t Give Everything Away (2002–2016), the sixth installment in its archival series. The label specified a September 12, 2025 release date and detailed formats including a 13?CD box, an 18?piece vinyl edition and digital versions, all named after the closing track of Bowie’s final studio album Blackstar. The set includes the studio albums Heathen, Reality, A Reality Tour, The Next Day, The Next Day Extra and ? (Blackstar), plus a previously unreleased 31?track live set from the Montreux Jazz Festival and a three?disc compilation Re:Call 6 with 41 non?album tracks.

In Germany, the box set reached the Official German Albums Chart shortly after release. Data from GfK Entertainment’s Offizielle Deutsche Charts shows that I Can’t Give Everything Away (2002–2016) entered the albums chart on September 19, 2025 and peaked at number 6, remaining in the ranking for a single week. This positions the box set as Bowie’s most recent notable chart presence in Germany and indicates a sustained market for his catalogue almost ten years after his death.
