A fantasy classic that comes to life again at the Nikolaisaal

On February 27, 2027, the Great Hall of the Nikolaisaal Potsdam transforms into a stage for grand images, warm orchestral colors, and real cinema magic. The Neverending Story comes to Potsdam as a film live concert – with the Deutsches Filmorchester Babelsberg under the direction of Burkhard Götze and moderated by Knut Elstermann.

When Phantásia takes over the concert hall

Wolfram Petersen's adaptation of Michael Ende's bestseller is one of the defining fantasy films of the 80s. In conjunction with the live music, the story unfolds its full pull: floating strings, rich soundscapes, and precise synchronization allow the journey through Phantásia to shine anew. Klaus Doldinger's music has carried the film for decades – played live, it feels even more immediate, physical, and intense.

Orchestral sound that makes images bigger

The Deutsches Filmorchester Babelsberg brings plenty of experience in film music and concert activity. This is precisely the special strength of this evening: sound and screen intertwine, every scene gains depth, and every emotional turn gains color. The Nikolaisaal, known for its special acoustics and a staple for film live concerts, provides the perfect setting for this.

An experience for families and film fans

The concert is recommended for children aged 10 and above and is aimed at families, film friends, and film lovers who want to not just see a classic but feel it. The live atmosphere in the hall, the shared amazement in the audience, and the power of the orchestral sound make this afternoon a concert experience worth remembering.

Why this date stands out

The Nikolaisaal, with its approximately 725 seats, ensures closeness, concentration, and an intense listening experience. The address in the Potsdam city center, the famous film music by Klaus Doldinger, and the renowned ensemble from Babelsberg create a constellation that is perfect for this format. Anyone who loves fantasy, film art, and orchestral sound should not miss this special date in the concert calendar.

Conclusion: This film live concert brings one of the great fantasy classics back to the stage with full musical power. An evening for grand images, strong emotions, and a hall full of goosebumps. Anyone who wants to experience the magic of Phantásia live should not miss this date at the Nikolaisaal.
