Despite her success, Wagner's career has seen various phases, including pauses and resurgences. After initially stepping back from her musical endeavors early in the 2000s, she transitioned to focusing on her real name and explored avenues like acting and television hosting.

Her comeback as Blümchen came triumphantly in 2019, re-establishing her presence with nostalgic hits and allowing her to engage with both old and new followers.
Throughout her career, Wagner has expressed immense gratitude to her fans for their unwavering support. "My Journey began in the 90s, has accompanied generations, and now it ends with one last, big show - full of love, gratitude, and emotion," she echoed. This farewell tour is intended as her grand exit, allowing her to celebrate those years of shared joy with her supporters.
The "30th Anniversary" tour is slated to span from May to November 2025, with multiple performances scheduled across Germany and Switzerland. The excitement surrounding the tour is palpable as fans gear up for what will serve as their last opportunity to experience her live. While specific details about the concluding concert remain under wraps, the anticipation continues to grow.

Reflecting on her shift away from music, she embraces the chance to spend more quality time with her family, saying, "This Journey was more beautiful than I could ever have dreamed. Now I want to say thank you for 30 incredible years." Such statements illuminate Wagner's recognition of the different aspects of her life and the balance she wishes to create moving forward.
