Helene Fischer defends high ticket prices as tour ends, cites job creation

German singer Helene Fischer responded to criticism over the cost of tickets for her 360° stadium tour, arguing that rising production expenses and the hundreds of staff employed justify prices that often exceed €100, with VIP packages reaching €429‑€479. She emphasized that the tour creates many jobs, from creative teams to technical and catering staff.

The tour, celebrating Fischer’s 20‑year stage anniversary, comprised 15 stadium shows across Germany, Austria, Switzerland and the Netherlands, drawing roughly 750,000 spectators. The final concert in Munich’s Allianz Arena attracted about 71,000 fans. In a post‑tour Instagram message, Fischer expressed gratitude, said she still gets “goosebumps” when recalling the Munich show, and thanked both the audience and her team for their support.
