Abstract: In this paper, we prove a Mergelyan type approximation theorem for immersed holomorphic Legendrian curves in an arbitrary complex contact manifold $(X,xi)$. Explicitly, we show that if $S$ is a compact admissible set in a Riemann surface $M$ and $f:SoX$ is a $xi$-Legendrian immersion of class $mathscr{C}^{r+2}(S,X)$ for some $rge2$ which is holomorphic in the interior of $S$, then $f$ can be approximated in the $mathscr{C}^r(S,X)$ topology by holomorphic Legendrian embeddings from open neighbourhoods of $S$ into $X$. This result has numerous applications, some of which are indicated in the paper. In particular, by using Bryant's correspondence for the Penrose twistor map $mathbb{CP}^{3}o{S}^4$ we show that a Mergelyan approximation theorem and the Calabi-Yau property hold for superminimal surfaces in the $4$-sphere $S^4$.
