2026 is a year full of great memories.
David Bowie has been gone for 10 years.
Prince for 10 years.
Amy Winehouse for 15 years.
Lemmy Kilmister for 11 years.
And yet, they’re everywhere.
In our music. In our images. In our sense of life.
These artists were more than stars. They were icons. They shaped generations, pushed boundaries, invented styles, and defined attitudes. In Berlin, David Bowie is still celebrated – and Ziggy Stardust keeps appearing on the streets. So why not in Cologne, too?
HEROES is our passionate, high-energy tribute to the great figures of pop culture. Not a nostalgia show, but a theatrical journey through music, imagery, myth, and attitude. A celebration of their art – and the emotions they still spark in us today.
For the past two years, the show has been performed every January at the Orangerie Theater – every night to a sold-out audience.
The 2026 Anniversary Special: Come as a Legend
For this great year of remembrance for Bowie, Prince, and Amy, we invite you:

Because some people never disappear.
They become legends.
They become Heroes.
