On 10.10.2024 the Popkurs Hamburg celebrates its 40th anniversary with a big energetic celebration and an exciting program. We invite you to be part of it!

Closely linked to Hamburg's pop music tradition as "Music City" from the Beatles to modern times, the HFMT's "Popkurs Hamburg" is still an unusual course of study for paving the way for future music careers. Numerous graduates have had a major influence on the German and international music scene - from avant-garde artists like the band "Wir sind Helden" or Peter Fox to contemporary pop with "Boy" or "Revolverheld", from music cabaret artists like Bodo Wartke to successful composers like Martin Lingnau ("Das Wunder von Bern") or film music makers like the 2023 Oscar winner Volker Bertelmann for "Im Westen nichts Neues". Whether Ute Lemper or Michy Reincke with his "Taxi to Paris", the Rainbirds with "Blueprint of my Lover", Johannes Oerding with "An guten Tagen" - in 40 years, the Popkurs Hamburg has repeatedly shaped the musical landscape.

Admission 6 pm in the HFMT Forum - start: 6:30 pm (on time).

Ceremony in the Forum, meet & greet, concert & party in the Jazzhall with graduates of the grandiose 40th year and surprise guests, dance floor in the foyer. DJ Lesley Farfisa will be spinning.

50 guest tickets are reserved for the public. If you would like to join the party, please send an email to veranstaltungen@hfmt-hamburg.de with your name and telephone number. Places will be allocated on a first-come, first-served basis! Registration deadline: October 2. Good luck!
