Abstract
Abstract We present V - and I-passband photometry of massive stars in the Cyg OB1 and Cyg OB2 associations, based on about 80 observing nights spanning 300 days in the 2011 season. The variability of 22 supergiants and 48 OB-stars with luminosity classes III-V is analyzed. We report two new variable OB stars and 15 variable supergiants of which four are new discoveries. The light variations of Schulte 12 are interpreted as microvariability. We also present light curves of the red supergiants BC Cyg and BI Cyg which exhibit brightness drop of more than 0.4 mag during the season.
