Goldene Henne 2026 awards ceremony held in Leipzig

Overview

The 32nd annual Goldene Henne awards took place on September 4, 2026, at the Leipzig Messe. The ceremony, Germany’s largest audience award, was co-hosted by Florian Silbereisen in his fifth consecutive year and Esther Sedlaczek in her debut as a presenter.

Broadcast live on ARD to approximately 4,500 spectators, the event featured musical performances by Take That, Peter Maffay, and Kerstin Ott. Notable honors included a lifetime achievement award presented to 95-year-old actor, painter, and writer Armin Mueller-Stahl. Singer Helene Fischer, who was previously confirmed to attend, received her ninth Goldene Henne. The event also saw significant fan attention for Weimar-born singer Ute Freudenberg.

Prior to the ceremony, Silbereisen had addressed a minor finger injury sustained during a drum duel and shared personal superstitions regarding his stage fright. The winners of the awards, which span categories in music, film, entertainment, and sports, were determined by public vote.
