Pop star Helene Fischer (38) is going on a big tour of Germany, Austria and Switzerland next year. As the singer announced at a specially convened press conference in Cologne, there will be a total of 70 dates. Once again Fischer is working with the Cirque du Soleil, which will accompany the concerts creatively.

Fischer said of the large number of concerts: "I don't care how many concerts we organize. The main thing is that I can make people happy." That's fine with her as long as she has a few days off between performances. Especially in times like these, it is most important for the audience to "simply switch off and leave everyday life behind" on such evenings, as the "world" quoted Fischer.

Referring to the rising prices and the energy crisis caused by the war in Ukraine, Fischer said according to "Tonight News": "A family that before the crisis afforded a concert once or twice a year might now think twice about where she's going." She is there to ensure that people go home happy and take the memories with them. She will continue not to express herself politically because the media would pounce on it: "I don't think I'm important enough for that."

The entire planning of the show took 18 months, it will soon become concrete for her personally: she has to train for the last three to four months: "The muscles will definitely remember one or the other exertion, but it will be very intense. " She is not flawless, but it will be a "perfectly staged show". She can hardly wait for the tour to start.

It starts on March 21st in Bremen. After stops in Cologne, Hamburg, Dortmund, Leipzig, Stuttgart, Oberhausen, Berlin, Mannheim, Hanover, Vienna, Zurich and Munich, the tour ends in Frankfurt on October 8th. Tickets are already available on the official website helene-fischer.de.
