The tour so far, for context
Der W is the solo project Stephan Weidner launched after Böhse Onkelz split in 2005, following a career as the band's bassist, songwriter, and leader since 1980. As Der W he steps to the microphone himself, with guitarist Dirk Czuya at his side since 2010, and the repertoire runs from the straight Deutschrock of his early solo albums to the Kafka settings on III. His solo debut, Schneller, Höher, Weidner (2008), went gold in Germany.
The recent touring pattern explains the scale of the 2027 run. In 2024 Weidner played twelve acoustic evenings with a string ensemble, documented on a live album released in November 2025; in March 2026 he returned to electric club shows for fourteen dates. The 2027 rooms — Haus Auensee, Astra, Turbinenhalle 1, Theater am Tanzbrunnen — are a step up from those spring 2026 clubs, and the routing runs north to east to southwest across Germany. The previous solo album, V, is now four years old, so the VI billing signals new material alongside the back catalogue.
Ticket and presale info
Presale begins Wednesday, November 4, 2026, at 10 a.m. via myticket, and Eventim lists tickets from Friday, November 6, 2026, at 10 a.m. Prices and ticket types had not been published at announcement time, and the spring 2026 club tour nearly sold out, so early booking is advisable.
