German pop star seeks "happiness on the streets" in summer 2026: 10 years "on the road" & 10th anniversary of "80 million" and "The boy who runs"

Max Giesinger will be on the road with open-air performances in summer 2026. With his new album "Glück auf den Strassen" (Happiness on the Streets), Max Giesinger takes his audience on a road trip full of new sounds, exploring the origins of the motivation that drives him to make music. The title track exudes the lightness of summer and, like all the other songs on the album, is perfectly suited for experiencing live together outdoors. At the same time, 2026 marks the 10th anniversary of his single "80 Millionen" (80 Million) and his album "Der Junge, der rennt" (The Boy Who Runs), which helped him achieve breakthrough success—wonderful summer evenings full of emotions are on the horizon!

Max Giesinger's journey from his debut "Laufen Lernen" (Learning to Run), through "80 Millionen," "Wenn sie tanzt" (When She Dances), "Legenden" (Legends), "Auf das, was da noch kommt" (To What Is Yet to Come), "Irgendwann ist jetzt" (Sometime Is Now), to "Menschen" (People) and "Wimpernschlag" (Eyelash Blink), his duet with Johannes Oerding, is truly remarkable. The title of his second album, "Der Junge, der rennt," was programmatic for the last decade of the musician's life: over 800 concerts played so far, more often on the road than at home, participation as a coach on "The Voice Kids" & "Sing meinen Song," then back to the studio to record new songs and out again to perform on ever larger stages and arenas—there has always been only one direction: full speed ahead.

Now, for the first time, Max Giesinger is taking time to reflect on his rapid career and to ask himself how all of this came to be. He provides the answer on "Glück auf den Strassen" with new sounds, a lot of empathy for the human species, and by taking his fans on a road trip back to the original feeling that brought him to music in the first place. Starting from loud music listening in a convertible with his mother, to his performances as a street musician in the pedestrian zones of Karlsruhe and Sydney, to his current life as a musician, the freedom of being on the road runs like a red thread through his work.

However, Max Giesinger has realized that the boy who runs must also pause after 10 years of constant traveling. He plans to hit the pause button to breathe, reflect, and enjoy life. Therefore, after the summer open-air shows in 2026, he will take an indefinite break. This makes summer 2026 a "highlight summer" with some of the most memorable open-air performances from the last 10 years. It’s a good reason to give him so much fan warmth at these open-air shows that he can hardly wait to come back!
