On Sunday, the entire music and show world is looking forward to Bernese Oberland: Then Helen Fischer (37) made her first appearance since 2019 and first as a new mom at Snowpenair in Grindelwald BE. 10,000 fans travel from home and abroad, and virtually all of the 8,000 guest beds at the Ice Village are fully booked. Vital media attention is also expected when Fisher appears in public without a baby bump for the first time on Sunday afternoon at 2 p.m.
“We are delighted with the huge interest,” says Urs Kessler (60), festival founder and CEO of the Jungfrau railway. He’s been running Snowpenair for 25 years. This year, for the first time, it will not be held at Kleine Scheidegg, but at the Grindelwald Grund at the new Grindelwald station.
Helen Fisher is the big finale on Sunday afternoon. “She’s been training for a long time. It’s going to be a great show,” Kessler says.
Solo hit star: Five amazing facts about Helen Fisher(01:02)
It’s unclear if Helen actually exists
Finnish rock band Sunrise Avenue, which will appear on stage on Saturday, is already preparing to perform. Frontman Samu Haber, 45, is already there with his colleagues and hilariously posts photos of the festival’s website. “Keep on building youth,” he wrote, “Saturday is show day.”
Kessler does not want to comment on whether Helen Fischer is actually in the Bernese Oberland. She is also quiet on social media. Only a lot: “She travels with a large entourage including a band.” Where you are is unclear, the five-star Victoria Jungfrau in Interlaken and the new luxury resort of Grindelwald Bergwelt are perfect.
Behind the scenes there are braids, cheese slices and champagne
Will her fiancé Thomas Settle, 37, and her three-month-old baby travel with her, too? This is subject to speculation. According to reports, Fisher’s baby was born around Christmas last year. The girl should be called Nala. However, the singer confirmed that she is only pregnant and that she did not give birth at home.
Even if the singer places great importance on her privacy, Kessler says, she is “absolutely uncomplicated and a pleasure to deal with.” In the backstage area, there is also a “Züpfe, flat cheese and champagne” for the fishermen.
Nothing stands in the way of looking bulky
Fisher should perform her songs for about 120 minutes. Great weather – bright sunshine with a moderate temperature of 13 – is also expected. So nothing stands in the way of the successful queen’s big comeback. The grandiose mountain scene at the foot of the Eiger concludes the performance – not only her fans feel the sincerity of her song “In the Middle of Heaven”.
