For the first time, Stefanie Hertel (44) will host the musical and contemplative Christmas show, which will be presented for the tenth time in Flachau in the midst of the wintry mountains of Salzburger Land, alongside DJ Ötzi (52).
Viewers will be able to see and hear the musical Christmas artistry of Andrea Berg, Florian Silbereisen, Hansi Hinterseer or the Austrian band Die Seer, their Swiss colleagues the Esteriore Brothers and many more.

To kick off the Christmas week, Florian Silbereisen (42) presents the Christmas show to sing along to on December 18: "Alle singen Weihnachten! The great Advent festival singing 2023". Together with clubs, choirs and groups from all over Germany, stars will sing the most beautiful Christmas carols.
This time they include: "From the boxing club to the baking club, from the fire department to the queens, from American football to Saxon samba", as the broadcaster writes.
They will be supported by these prominent artists: Andrea Berg, Roland Kaiser, Vicky Leandros, DJ Ötzi, Ella and Norbert Endlich, Frank Schöbel, Semino Rossi, Oli.P, Nicole, Ross Antony, Patricia Kelly, Ramon Roselly and many more.
The show will be repeated at the end of the week (22.12.) on MDR.
"Das große Weihnachtssingen", 23.12., 8 p.m., RTL
On the evening before Christmas Eve, the RTL broadcasting group wants to get the audience into the Christmas spirit. In a 15-minute special show, Andrea Berg (57) and Sasha (51) will sing four of the most popular Christmas songs together with a choir and prominent faces from the station. The show will be hosted by Victoria Swarovski (30).
The RTL choir includes presenters and show faces such as Bruce Darnell, Angela Finger-Erben, Mirja Boes, Wolfram Kons and Lola Weippert. The Christmas classics "Oh Tannenbaum", "Last Christmas", "Stille Nacht, heilige Nacht" and "All I want for Christmas" will be performed.
"Das große Weihnachtssingen" will be broadcast simultaneously from 8 to 8:15 p.m. on six TV channels, RTL radio stations and digital platforms.
"Christmas Eve with Carmen Nebel", 24.12., 8:15 pm, ZDF
On Christmas Eve, Carmen Nebel (67) invites you to a joint TV Christmas party in the mountains. The broadcaster promises a "cozy open fire and beautiful Christmas music".
The presenter will meet up with Ella Endlich, Matze Knop, Monika Baumgartner, Wolfgang Ambros, Mark Keller and his son Aaron and Julia Lindholm on a cozy mountain pasture in Tyrol. The cottage band Tschentig will provide the atmosphere.
Fans should particularly enjoy the evening, as "Christmas Eve will be redesigned in 2024", a spokeswoman confirmed to Bild am Sonntag in September.
"The Helene Fischer Show", 25.12., 20:15, ZDF
"The Helene Fischer Show" will conclude on Christmas Day. After a three-year break, host, singer and acrobat Helene Fischer (39) welcomes national and international guests such as Beatrice Egli, Peter Maffay, Ben Zucker, Nena and ESC winner Loreen. Comedienne Tahnee, Twenty4Tim and the ensemble from the musical "Moulin Rouge" are also expected.
Fans can look forward to two duets in particular: as in the last "Wetten, dass...?" show, Fischer and Shirin David will perform their new version of "Atemlos durch die Nacht". Another colorful and musical highlight is likely to be the duet with actor and musician Tom Beck - the two will be seen on the show as pink Barbie and Ken in a blonde wig.
The "Helene Fischer Show" will be broadcast - as usual before the Corona break - on December 25 at 8:15 pm on ZDF.
