Helene Fischer Pauses ZDF Christmas Show, Sets 2026 Stadium Tour Plans

In new interviews, the singer says she never sought fame, originally aiming for musical theatre.

Overview

  • Fischer said on the MayWay podcast that her annual ZDF Christmas special is on hold this year so she can focus on family.
  • She became a mother of two this summer and describes this as a quieter, home-centered period with partner Thomas Seitel supporting daily life.
  • Reports outline a 20-year anniversary stadium tour in 2026 with 14 dates across Germany, Austria and Switzerland beginning on 10 June in Dresden, with preparations already underway.
  • She explained that balancing parenting and career now requires more organization and planning, and she is giving herself time to keep projects coherent without pushing a musical reinvention at home.
  • Fischer said she never aimed for celebrity and originally trained for musical theatre and acting before her singing career took off.
