Pop star Helene Fischer gives her fans a mega show. At the start of the tour in Hamburg on Tuesday evening, 12,000 people celebrated and cheered the 38-year-old musician – read more about it here. The stage performance: more than a simple concert. The looks: all eye-catchers.
In particular, the so-called “wind dress”. Read what that is below. We’ll also give you more details.
Despite the accident, she performs as planned
The tour was actually supposed to start on March 21st. But Helene Fischer had a rehearsal accident: rib fracture. In the meantime she is fit again and can deliver on stage as planned. With artistic deposits. At the concert on Tuesday, she said to her fans: “Don’t worry about me, because I’m doing fantastic, the doctors gave me the green light, nothing can stop me today, I’m not careless, but I just feel like it tonight.”
Couple appearance with Thomas Seitel
Perhaps a highlight for many fans: Helene Fischer floats through the air with her partner Thomas Seitel to her hit “Hand in Hand” – intimately, in love, familiar. Read more about it here.
The wind dress
A good 100 costumes are used throughout the three-hour show. A highlight is the wind dress. Developed by the designers of Cirque du Soleil, it consists of 112 meters of fireproof material. It is said to be “definitely the biggest dress of her career”.
Everything here seems well thought out. Also that the dress was made of a fireproof fabric. Because not only once there are real flames to see.
A game with the elements
On the stage is a five meter diameter pool surrounded by a ring of fire. The water in the pool is said to be recycled. Water and fire play a role in the show again and again. 800 jets and 3,000 liters of water created a waterfall effect.

The air is also an important element in Fischer’s performances. In the show conceived by Cirque du Soleil, you and a total of 30 dancers and acrobats hang from trapezes or float through the air on ropes.
