Kicked off the celebration tour in Erfurt: Sido's jubilee event starts in Erfurt - Commences Sido's anniversary concert tour in Erfurt
Rapper Sido, a legend of German rap, celebrated a quarter-century of his music career with an epic live show at Erfurt's Domplatz on July 4, 2025. The concert, part of Sido's extensive 25 Jahre SIDO - Die Jubiläumstour, was a nostalgic journey through his musical evolution, featuring his biggest hits from all phases of his career.
The open-air summer event started at 20:00, with doors opening at 18:00. Thousands of fans attended the concert, eager to experience Sido's development live and celebrate songs that have shaped a generation. Ticket prices for the Erfurt concert started from €74.99.
The tour, which is planned to last until August 17th, features 25 shows in total. Sido wore a skull mask at public appearances when he became known to a larger audience but later abandoned it. The tour showcases Sido’s career highlights and connects deeply with fans through a mix of emotions and memorable performances.
For those under 16, attendance is only permitted if accompanied by an adult or legal custodian. Young people aged 16 to 18 without supervision require 24-hour permission to attend. Children under 6 years are not permitted at the concert, even with a guardian. Tickets may be picked up on-site or shipped within Germany with applicable fees, and international shipping costs vary.
Sido has been a jury member on the casting show "The Voice of Germany" and has also appeared on television. In 2023, he gained attention for a conversation with the then Federal Minister of Health, Karl Lauterbach (SPD), about the partial legalization of cannabis. Sido has also acted in films, specifically "Halbe Brüder."
After the Erfurt concert, Sido took to his Facebook page to express his gratitude, stating it was an honor to perform for his fans. The jubilee tour is a testament to Sido's enduring popularity and his significant impact on German rap music. Fans can look forward to more unforgettable performances as the tour continues across Germany.
During the concert, a mix of emotions filled the air as fans celebrated Sido's hits that have shaped a generation, transforming the Erfurt Domplatz into an epicenter of entertainment, society, and Sido's musical evolution. Despite the Health Minister's discussions on cannabis legalization in 2023, Sido's career extends beyond music, including acting in films like "Halbe Brüder" and serving as a jury member on the casting show "The Voice of Germany."
