After the popular Conelli Christmas circus could not take place for the past two years due to Corona, it is now back. In keeping with the 40th anniversary, the famous red tent is back on the Bauschänzli in Zurich. “We all missed him,” explained Zurich SP government councilor Mario Fehr (64) last night at the glamorous VIP premiere. “The Conelli is simply part of the Advent season.”
Star chef Meta Hiltebrand (39), who came with her partner Tom Guldimann (40), agrees with this opinion: “I was in Conelli as a small child and later also helped out as a restaurateur in the kitchen,” says Hiltebrand. “Finally real Christmas again,” adds Guldimann, before both have the obligatory Conelli star stuck on.
Eva Wannenmacher came with her two daughters
DJ Tanja La Croix (40) is in the Zurich Christmas circus for the first time: “I’m looking forward to this family event and appropriately brought my sister with me.” SRF presenter Eva Wannenmacher (51), who came with her two daughters Greta (14) and Smilla (12), also relied on family support. “Being able to go to the circus is no longer a matter of course today. It’s always a party, especially when the daughters are there.”
The traditional event already has a fixed date in the agenda of entrepreneur Silvia Affolter (57): “To coincide with my 40th anniversary, I’m celebrating my 30th visit to Conelli this year. I’m excited to see what the Gasser family will surprise us with this year.” The Conelli evening also reminds her of something else, Affolter explains with a laugh: “That I should slowly start getting my Christmas presents.”
