The Swabian Criminal Dinner ‘Sherlock Holmes and the Poisoned Maultäschlesoup’ – a delicious multi-course menu in a stylish atmosphere surrounded by an exciting criminal case at Hotel Seepark in Thun.

‘Sherlock Holmes and the Poisoned Maultäschlesoup’

Yes, you read that right, the famous master detective Sherlock Holmes and yours truly, Dr. Watson, have found themselves in the Swabian region. Admittedly, not entirely voluntarily. However, our genius could not decline the invitation of an old acquaintance, Baroness von Zuckerberg, to a gala dinner once again. So here we are dining in the side room of the restaurant, where on this evening you will enjoy a delicious 3-course menu.

While fleeing from his dinner neighbor, the endlessly chatting Swabian baroness, the detective narrowly misses the alleged murder of the hostess's husband, Baron von Zuckerberg.

Well, his health condition was not the best. But to suddenly topple face forward into the Maultäschlesoup is also not the proper English way to die, even in Swabia. For Sherlock Holmes, however, the previously deadly boring evening is saved.

A dialect crime is on the agenda, an extremely tricky case indeed, as the investigation results seemingly rule out any influence of poison. The questioning of witnesses, the forensic pathologist, and some of the dinner guests makes several innocent little lambs in the room appear suspicious. Eagerly and in high spirits, the famous detective cranks up his little gray cells. "Swabian cunning" is already spreading, but no false builder will fool the master so quickly. For him, the solution to the case soon becomes clear. As always, however, he will leave us in the dark for a while longer before the murderer is virtuously caught.

Perhaps you will soon have the solution as well, because you too will have a say on this evening.

The 3-course menu will be served by the gastro team at Hotel Seepark. The Krimi Dinner will commence at 7 PM, guaranteeing thrills for both nerves and palate. Doors open at 6:30 PM.

Entry: 6:30 PM / Menu and theater performance are included in the price / Table and seating will be assigned on site.

The criminal dinner 'And you are out' – it's a delicious multi-course menu in a stylish atmosphere surrounded by an exciting criminal case, which will take place at the Hotel Kettenbrücke in Aarau.

You find yourself in the ballroom of the exquisite wellness hotel "Pachisi". The gala dinner is ready, and the kitchen already smells delicious. After the exhausting yoga afternoon, you truly deserve your dinner! Or did you rather burn off your energy with archery or water aerobics? Whichever group you were in - now you gather together for the festive feast and the exclusive presentation of the new board game "And you are out" - the game author will be present personally! Much to the dismay of yoga icon Eva Endlich, who would have preferred to send her guests to bed early. After all, tomorrow's program includes "Yoga at sunrise". But what was announced as a funny game night turns into bitter reality: A corpse hangs lifeless over the garden fence - with an arrow in the chest. A competition between the rival sports groups? Or a sinister version of the "Game of Life"? Roll the dice! It's about nothing less than the truth and the necessity to find the perpetrator(s)!

The multi-course menu will be served by the gastro team at Hotel Kettenbrücke, which will guarantee thrills for both nerves and palate. Doors open at 18:30 - the event starts at 19:00.

Entry: 18:30 / Multi-course menu and theater play are included in the price / Table and seating will be assigned on-site.

ROCK RADIO HITS THAT GET UNDER YOUR SKIN

Since the release of their debut album in 2006, the alternative rockers Takida have been living in the fast lane. With their mainstream-ready rock radio material, the band initially won over their home country and eventually all of Scandinavia. Ever since the release of the 2024 album "The Agony Flame," the multi-Platinum musicians have been convincing rock fans across Europe with their catchy songs.

They lead radio airplay charts, perform in increasingly larger venues, and bring their unmistakable sound to a continuously growing fan base. The Swedish multi-Platinum group Takida is rushing from success to success. In 2023, the band embarked on their biggest tour to date, taking them through sold-out arenas in their home country and onto major festival stages throughout Europe, including one of the main stages at Wacken Open Air. Their "Smoke & Mirrors" tour in April 2024 continued the success story with sold-out shows in Germany, Austria, and Switzerland. With the latest album "The Agony Flame," their recognition increased even further. The band also made its debut on the Swiss charts with this album. The long player once again embodies the unmistakable Takida sound with its infectious, anthemic choruses. Singer Robert Pettersson presents himself in absolutely top form. With "The Lonliest Hour," the first song from the album, released as a standalone single beforehand and directly entering at number 1 on the German Rock Radio airplay charts, Takida also achieved their biggest radio success to date. With strong and emotional songs like "Your Blood Awaits You," "Third Strike," and "On The Line," "The Agony Flame" offers further hit candidates. The songs elevate Takida's thrilling live sets to the next level. And now, the band announces their return to Pratteln in spring 2027. Diebuehrers.com wrote about the last live show of the Swedes at Z7: "From the first note, the atmosphere among the fans was excellent, and there was no holding back. With hits like ‘Master’ and ‘Losing,’ the crowd went wild. The powerful voice of Robert Petterson gave the songs an unimaginable intensity. Fans enjoyed the set from the first to the last note. A concert that got under your skin."

The Kriminal Dinner 'Sherlock Holmes und die vergiftete Maultäschlesupp' - a delicious multi-course menu in a stylish setting framed by an exciting criminal case at the Restaurant Hahn in Basel.

'Sherlock Holmes und die vergiftete Maultäschlesupp'

Yes, you read that right, the famous master detective Sherlock Holmes and yours truly, Dr. Watson, have found themselves in the Swabian region. Admittedly, not entirely voluntarily. But our genius could not decline the invitation of an old acquaintance, the Baroness von Zuckerberg, to a gala dinner once again. So here we are dining just at the time in the adjoining room of the restaurant, where you will enjoy a delicious 3-course menu this evening.

While fleeing from his chatty dining companion, the endlessly talking baroness, the detective barely misses the apparent murder of the hostess's husband, Baron von Zuckerberg.

Well, his health was not the best. But falling suddenly face-first into the Maultäschlesupp is not the proper English way to die, even in Swabia. For Sherlock Holmes, however, the previously deadly boring evening is saved.

A crime is at hand, an extremely tricky case too, as the investigation results seemingly rule out any influence of poison. The questioning of witnesses, the forensic pathologist, and some of the dinner guests makes quite a few innocent lambs in the room appear suspicious.
Eagerly and in good spirits, the famous detective starts engaging his little gray cells. Soon, "Swabian cunning" takes hold, but no false house builder will easily fool the master. For him, the solution to the case will soon be clear. As always, however, he keeps us in the dark for a while longer before the murderer is virtuously caught.

Perhaps you will soon have the solution at hand as well, since you too will have a word to say this evening.

The 3-course menu will be served by the gastro team at Restaurant Hahn. The Krimi Dinner will open at 5 PM, which will guarantee a thrill for nerves and taste buds. Doors open at 4:30 PM.

MELANCHOLY & STRENGTH

Nordic melancholy meets progressive soundscapes and healthy strength: the cult band Amorphis comes to Pratteln with their unique blend of melodic death metal, folk, epic melodies, powerful metal anthems, and atmospheric sounds. On the “Borderland Tour 2027”, the Finns will present their current album. The supporting acts are Insomnium and Unto Others.

Since the 90s, Amorphis has been one of the most influential bands in their genre. With albums like “Tales From The Thousand Lakes” and “Queen of Time,” they have continuously developed their unmistakable sound, combining powerful riffs with profound lyrics often inspired by Finnish mythology. Fans of demanding, modern metal sounds will be well catered for here. On the ongoing tour, Amorphis presents their latest album “Borderline,” which was created in their first collaboration with Danish producer Jacob Hansen (Volbeat, Amaranthe, Epica, Evergrey, among others). Esa Holopainen states: “Amorphis has an unmistakable sound and a unique approach to making music. Six strong personalities in the band certainly bring their own challenges to the production process – especially for the producer. Jacob was chosen for several important reasons: He has already worked with an impressively diverse array of artists and is an incredibly calm, creative, and resourceful producer.” The result sounds fantastic. Band leader Esa Holopainen seems to have an endless supply of brilliant melodies. Metal1.info writes: “The first association with ‘Borderland’ is joy of playing: when you hear these songs for the first time, you can directly envision the euphoria on the faces of the musicians as they work on these songs, playing the riffs, solos, choruses, bridges, and more. The fact that Amorphis dares to try one or two experiments greatly enriches ‘Borderland,’ but what’s more crucial is that the Finns have rethought established elements: Amorphis sounds unmistakably like themselves on ‘Borderland’ – yet also at times more melodic, at times heavier, and above all more compelling than ever before.” The Metal Hammer critic gives the top rating and concludes his review as follows: “This band sounds more Finnish than the Finnish national anthem and will surely be declared a national cultural asset soon.”

DELAIN DIFFERENT THAN BEFORE

DELAIN will open a new chapter in 2027 and present an extraordinary concert format on stage. Together with Marko Hietala and other guests, a unique live experience will be created that connects the past and future of the band. Fans can look forward to a special evening beyond a classic tour show.

For over two decades, DELAIN has established itself as a major force in modern melodic metal. Since the debut album "Lucidity," the band has represented a distinctive blend of catchy melodies, orchestral arrangements, and powerful guitars. Albums like "April Rain," "We Are the Others," and "The Human Contradiction" have shaped this journey, while "Dark Waters" (2023) marked the band's biggest success yet with top-10 placements in Germany and the US Hard Music Charts. Behind the band is mastermind Martijn Westerholt, who founded DELAIN after leaving Within Temptation and has been continuously developing it since.

In February 2027, DELAIN will embark on a special concept tour: instead of a classic show, the audience can expect a specially curated live format with changing high-profile guests and musical surprises. At the center of this is also the renewed collaboration with Marko Hietala, whose shared past has produced some of the most significant moments in the band's history. Other contributors will be announced at a later date. Simultaneously, the band is working on new material set to be released before the tour, marking the beginning of this new phase. With only a few selected dates, this tour promises an intense and unique concert experience that goes far beyond a typical live evening.
Special Guest: Infected Rain.

CULTIVATED BRUTALITY

For 20 years, Whitechapel from Knoxville have represented cultivated deathcore and death metal. With their ninth album "Hymns Of Dissonance", the Americans have returned in 2025 to the uncompromisingly brutal sound of their early days. In 2027, they will come to Europe with the "Burn Forever Tour" to knock out fans with their blastbeat anthems. Supporting acts: Sylosis, 200 Stab Wounds, and Tribal Gaze.

"Hymns In Dissonance" – the title of the current Whitechapel album is programmatic. "There is nothing beautiful about HID, from the riffs to the lyrics to the overall melody of the album. We tried to write our hardest album yet. We wanted to release something that is shockingly menacing and brutal," says guitarist Alex Wade about the band's latest work. "The album follows the story of a cultist who gathers people to join his cult. There are moments in this story where the cult followers sing an anthem to open a portal through which the main cultist can enter." The dynamic, brutal musicality of the band provides the perfect soundtrack to the captivating story that singer Phil Bozeman vividly imagines: "'Hymns in Dissonance' is a mockery of the true nature of hymns," he says. "Hymns are melodic and harmonious. Dissonance is the exact opposite of melody and harmony. It represents evil. And the tracks on the album represent the seven deadly sins." A critic from Metal Hammer magazine writes about the band's latest output: "We have only just gotten used to the fact that Whitechapel musically opened a new, quieter chapter in their band career with 'The Valley', which continued on the 2021 work 'Kin'. Those who expected a continuation of that will be not only surprised but also overwhelmed by 'Hymns Of Dissonance'!" He summarizes the relentless death storm as follows: "For over ten tracks, it rages on in every shade of red rage. The blastbeat machinery fires incessantly, and Philip Bozeman's diabolical vocals swing between growling growls and hissing shouts." There is truly no room for sentimentality.

Prof. William Chattney is dead. He was a renowned scientist. However, before the will can be read, the life of the deceased must be reconstructed with the help of the guests. Not really a problem, except for Detective Johnson. He is investigating, as Chattney's death involves a violent crime.

Who killed Chattney and how? What was he researching? And what secret did he take to his grave? The notary Mr. Green and his loyal assistant Manfred have their hands full: They check the surveillance cameras of the property, read with the help of Herbert Wandschneider from the future, and Dr. Sten-Gelle combines cosmic energy with science just to solve the riddle. In the end, it is still Extrem Norbert, supported by the audience, who initiates the twist.

GÖTEBORGER SCHULE RELOADED

The Swedish melodic death allstars The Halo Effect have shaken up the scene significantly with their albums "Days Of The Lost" (2022) and "March Of The Unheard" (2025). Now they are coming to Z7 as the leaders of a first-class package. As special guests, they are bringing the Italian heavy-goth-alternative metallers Lacuna Coil and the Finnish melodeath combo Omnium Gatherum to Pratteln.

Founded in 2029 as a fun project among friends, The Halo Effect has quickly become one of the most popular bands in the melodic death genre. Before the formation of the quintet, the musicians were already playing in popular bands like In Flames or Dark Tranquility and played a key role in the establishment of the legendary "Göteborg School" in the 90s. With The Halo Effect, the musicians wanted to "not reinvent anything new," according to singer Mikael Stanne. "We just wanted to play to our strengths and create music that feels good." The implementation of this idea resulted in the single "Shadowminds," released in 2021. The streams skyrocketed into the millions. The subsequent debut album "Days Of The Lost" was nominated for a Swedish Grammy in 2022 and promoted on tours with colleagues like Machine Head, Amon Amarth, or Meshuggah. Additionally, they won the Metal Hammer Award in the "Rising Stars" category in 2024. The rise of the all-star band was rapid. "What I liked about our first album was that everything was completely new again," says singer Mikael Stanne, who had previously been with the melodic death pioneers Dark Tranquility for many years. "We didn’t know exactly what we wanted to do. It was just a lot of fun. But then you suddenly have to produce a successor to an album that was named Album of the Year by the largest specialist magazine in Sweden. You ask yourself: OK, how do we do this now?" The solution was quickly found: to remain true to their roots while also expanding their own visions. Thus, "March Of The Unheard" has become a triumphant successor that contains everything that helped the debut to a rapid breakthrough. Songs like "Detonate" and "What We Become" bear the characteristics of the Göteborg sound, with cutting guitar riffs, energetic drumming, and sing-along choruses that have addicted generations of metalheads. Other highlights build on these thrilling foundations and take it a step further. "Between Directions," for example, adds orchestral strings that fit perfectly into the energetic repertoire of The Halo Effect. Progressive synthesizers wiggle at the beginning of the opener "Conspire To Deceive," "Our Channel To The Darkness" explodes from contemplative acoustic guitars into a heavy metal storm, and with the instrumental "Coda," the album finds a choral and symphonic conclusion. "March Of The Unheard" is not just another masterpiece of Göteborg melodeath; it shows that the musicians, even 30 years after the breakthrough of the genre, have plenty of fresh ideas to continuously advance this kind of music.

SCHANDMAUL ARE BACK ON THE BIG VOYAGE

After five years of stagnation, it’s finally time to set sail again! Schandmaul returns with their new album Sternensegler to the big stage and brings their unmistakable mix of folk, rock, and storytelling magic to the Z7. On 05.03.2027, the band invites their loyal followers to embark together on new musical waters. As a special start, the Franconian folk rockers Gossenpoeten will contribute the first chapter of the evening.

Originally intended as a musical signal for departure after a prolonged dry spell, Sternensegler (scheduled for release in mid-2026) marks the beginning of a fresh era for the Munich folk rockers. The seven musicians present themselves more united than ever and boldly take the next step in their development. With their new album, which combines catchy melodies, poetic lyrics, and impressive soundscapes, Schandmaul expands their familiar sound with new facets – while not losing sight of their roots. Led by band leader Thomas Lindner, who smoothly switches between guitar and keyboard, the formation has recently been joined by frontman Till Herence. With his distinctive voice and fresh energy, he brings additional dynamism to the stage, while the band, as a tight-knit crew, charts a course for a new chapter. Together, they invite their audience to throw everyday life overboard and sail with them through stories, myths, and adventures – in the style of that Schandmaul magic that has been moving hearts and legs for years.

Doors open: 19:00

THE DEAD DAISIES: ON THE ROAD AGAIN

New album - new tour. 2027 will be a Dead Daisies year! David Lowy's all-star band featuring John Corabi and Doug Aldrich will return to the studio in 2026 to record new music. In spring 2027, the musicians will present their new material on an extensive album release tour.

“A new album will come out in 2027!” The Dead Daisies informed us in October 2025. Of course, we want to see the band with their upcoming work again here at Z7. Since 2012, the Australian guitarist, businessman, and former aerobatics pilot David Lowy has celebrated his love for elevated classic rock with the formation. In the all-star group, he unites some of the hottest names in rock history. Currently, guitarist Doug Aldrich and bassist Michel Devin, both former Whitesnake musicians, are on the team, while Tommy Clufetos (Black Sabbath, Ozzy, Alice Cooper, etc.) handles the drums. Together with frontman John Corabi (Mötley Crüe, Union, The Scream), they form a top-tier lineup for this fantastic supergroup. Over the past twelve years, The Dead Daisies have shared the stage with some of the biggest bands in rock history, including Kiss, Guns N' Roses, the Scorpions, Aerosmith, Def Leppard, Bad Company, Whitesnake, ZZ Top, Foreigner, Judas Priest, and the Hollywood Vampires. They played headliner shows in Europe, Japan, North and South America, performed for rock lovers in Cuba after the end of the embargo in 2015, and thrilled 300,000 fans together with a 60-piece orchestra at the “Concert For Freedom” in Poland. The Dead Daisies also rocked with hundreds of thousands of fans at prestigious festivals such as Download, Wacken, Graspop, Hellfest, and Sweden Rock. In autumn 2024, the Daisies were last our guests and delivered a fantastic best-of show—with Reb Beach as a substitute for the ailing Doug Aldrich. Currently, the musicians are working on new material to return to the studio in 2026 and release their next album in 2027, just in time for the tour.

Culinary delight and thrill: Guests at Hof zu Wil in Wil are offered quite a lot: Exquisitely served, spontaneously staged. The Kriminal Dinner – a delicious multi-course menu in a stylish ambiance framed by an interactive crime piece:

`A Thick Crime`

The absolute highlight in the quaint Swabian town is the annual performance by the cultural association. This year, due to great success, the play "Faust I" by Goethe will be performed again. However, the main role must be recast in a public audition. The board of the association has warmly invited the local population to participate. The well-known actress of Mephista, Linda Bergmann, is also present to assist. The audition goes surprisingly well until a sudden death throws the relaxed evening into chaos. Are there criminal machinations at play? Who can trust whom now?

The previously flawless cooperation of the cultural association and the small Swabian community shows cracks and threatens to fall apart. Marlene Dieterle, not only the chairwoman of the cultural association but also a commissioner and head of the homicide department, takes over the investigations.

Ultimately, all threads lead together:

What happened during the previous night at the extravagant farewell party of the former Faust actor? Could there have been a mix-up between play and reality? The case is painstakingly reconstructed, with some guests coming under suspicion. Commissioner Dieterle urgently requests assistance to solve the mysterious case.

The tempting multi-course menu is served and created by the kitchen team at Hof zu Wil. The thrill for nerves and palate starts at 5 PM, with entry from 4:30 PM.
