Ah, thank you, Wolfgang,
I tried {, } and not {, },. The result is that the rest vanishes.

Thank you very much, Wolfgang,
that helps me a lot.
But how can I change the formatting
{“weekday,space,day,space,month,space,year”}
so that I get a comma after weekday and a period after day? Where can
I find something about this?
Aside from keywords like day, weekday etc. the \date (and
\currentdate) commands allows free input which used as separator
between these keywords. To set a period as separator just put . as
entry in the list but ensure to use braces around , because it will
otherwise be interpreted as list separator.
When you use TeX command within Lua use double backslashes (\\)
because a backslash has special meaning here and with \\ you tell Lua
to put a single \ in the output.
%%%% begin example
\starttext
\currentdate[weekday,{, },day,. ,month,space,year]
%\currentdate[weekday,{, },day,.\ ,month,space,year]
\currentdate[weekday,\textcomma\ ,day,\textperiod\ ,month,space,year]
\startluacode
context.currentdate{ "weekday,{, },day,. ,month,space,year" }
\stopluacode
\startluacode
context.currentdate{ "weekday,\\textcomma\\ ,day,\\textperiod\\
,month,space,year" }
\stopluacode
\stoptext
%%%% end example
