After three decades captivating audiences, Jasmin Wagner, famously known as Blümchen, has announced her retirement from the music scene, marking the end of an iconic era. On March 12, 2025, Wagner revealed her plans to hold a farewell tour, thanking her dedicated fans for their loyalty with one final showcase of her musical legacy.
The beloved techno-pop star, who shot to fame in the 1990s with hits like "Herz an Herz" and "Boomerang," has sold millions of records, solidifying her status as one of Germany's most successful solo artists. At 44 years old, Wagner reflected on her remarkable career, which began when she was just 15 years old. "30 years voller Musik, Erinnerungen und unvergesslicher Momente - jetzt ist es Zeit, den Boomerang ein letztes Mal fliegen zu lassen," she expressed emotionally, sharing her gratitude for three decades of musical memories.
Wagner plans to take the stage once more for her "30th Anniversary" tour, scheduled to run from May to November 2025. This series of performances will take place across various cities in Germany and Switzerland, giving fans one last opportunity to experience the energy and nostalgia of her live shows.
"Meine Reise begann in den 90ern, hat Generationen begleitet und nun endet sie mit einer letzten, großen Show - voller Liebe, Dankbarkeit und Emotionen," Wagner conveyed to BILD, emphasizing the emotional depth she intends to bring to these farewell performances. The culmination of the tour will feature a secret final concert slated for November, where fans are expected to experience a poignant closure to Blümchen's extraordinary career.
Since her breakout success, Wagner has consistently been at the forefront of the German music scene, defining the Eurodance genre with her unique voice and catchy beats. After taking a hiatus early in the 2000s, she made a much-celebrated comeback as Blümchen in 2019, reminding audiences of her enduring charm and talent. Just last year, she released "Ravergirl," her first Blümchen hit since her hiatus, demonstrating her lasting appeal.
Looking forward, Wagner describes her retirement not just as the end of her singing career, but also as the beginning of exciting new adventures outside the spotlight. "Die Musik hat mich durch mein ganzes Leben getragen - jetzt sage ich Danke für 30 unglaubliche Jahre und eine Reise, die schöner war, als ich es je hätte träumen können," she remarked, indicating plans to spend more quality time with her family, including her daughter, who was born in November 2022.
Wagner's impact on the music industry is undeniably significant, as she leaves behind millions of records sold and the love of fans across generations. Through her farewell tour, she hopes to leave her audience with joyful memories and gratitude, marking the end of her career with the same passion and exuberance she has shown throughout her life.
With her heartfelt departure, Blümchen will always hold a special place in the hearts of music lovers everywhere, as she transforms the bittersweet end of her career with laughter, love, and appreciation. Fans can hardly wait for what promises to be an unforgettable farewell weekend with Blümchen before she steps away from the stage for good.
