A Song for the State's Anniversary
26. May 2026
Baden-Württemberg will celebrate its 75th anniversary in 2027. To mark this occasion, the state is still looking for a suitable birthday song. All residents are invited to participate in the vote and cast their ballot for their favorite song. How does it work?
It’s simple: at www.landesjubilaeum-bw.de there are three songs to choose from. Just listen to the songs and cast your vote. The results will be announced on July 1.In the run-up to this vote, students and alumni of the Popakademie Baden-Württemberg submitted a total of 35 song demos. A panel of experts consisting of representatives from the Popakademie, SWR, the state government, and the band Rikas selected three tracks from all the submissions that are now up for a vote: songwriter ANICA, the band Faxen, and the trio Freezy Bakery.
Voting for the anniversary song is open now through June 30th 2026.
