In January and February 2025, Jan Böhmermann will go on an exclusive live tour through Germany, Austria and Switzerland with the Ehrenfeld Radio Dance Orchestra. Under the title "Eisern Ehrenfeld", the tour promises to be a spectacle that combines political satire, subversive show elements, outstanding music and astute poetry to create an incomparable stage experience. After the great success of their previous tours "Fernsehen ist so 2017", "Ehrenfeld ist überall" and "Ehrenfeld Intergalactic", the team is now building on its previous successes and even wants to surpass them.
With the motto "Iron Ehrenfeld", Jan Böhmermann emphasizes the unbroken determination and steadfastness that drives him and the Ehrenfeld Radio Dance Orchestra. "Iron is an excellent conductor of heat, is magnetically attractive, has high conductivity, is stable and when it comes into contact with fresh air, miraculous things happen," explains Böhmermann. These properties are reflected in the ensemble's work. Metallurgy serves as a metaphor for the strength and perseverance with which Böhmermann and his colleagues approach their artistic projects.
The tour promises a potpourri of ironic commentaries on the political and social situation, combined with the musical virtuosity of the Ehrenfeld Radio Dance Orchestra. Whether it's the completed "Pol1z1stens0hn" cycle, which addresses the relationship with the police, or the biting Eurovision Song Contest alternative anthem "Allemagne Zero Points" - the program offers a wide range of content that is intended to be both thought-provoking and humorously entertaining.
The Ehrenfeld Radio Dance Orchestra: A sound body of the highest strength
Since its founding in 2017, the Ehrenfeld Radio Dance Orchestra, under the direction of Lorenz Rhode, has established itself as a permanent fixture in the German music scene. With a line-up of 15 top-class musicians who are proficient in both electronic and classical instruments, the orchestra has created numerous original compositions and elaborate arrangements that accompany both national and international acts. Through their appearances on the "ZDF Magazin Royale" program and their presence on social media, especially on TikTok, the orchestra has built up a considerable fan base that extends beyond the borders of the German-speaking world.
Böhmermann himself emphasizes the international success of the orchestra: "The Ehrenfeld Radio Dance Orchestra is a brilliant sound body of the highest strength and, with its tens of millions of TikTok views, is now also a real star internationally!" This popularity is no longer limited to Europe, but now extends overseas and to Southeast Asia. For the upcoming tour, Böhmermann promises that the new fans will also get their money's worth.
The tour: A journey through Germany, Austria and Switzerland
The “Eisern Ehrenfeld” tour includes a total of 15 dates in Germany, Austria and Switzerland. It starts on January 13, 2025 in the Jahrhunderthalle in Frankfurt am Main.

The tour will finally come to an end on February 1, 2025 in the Grugahalle in Essen.
In addition to the outstanding musical performance and the satirical interludes, concertgoers can also look forward to special guests and unique performances. Böhmermann and the Radio Dance Orchestra have repeatedly brought prominent guests on stage in the past, including Herbert Grönemeyer, Daði Freyr, Danger Dan and HP Baxxter. What surprises the team is planning this time remains a secret, but it is certain that the audience can once again expect spectacular performances.
