Barack Obama set to visit Switzerland this April as part of European tour

By Emily Proctor

During his tenure as US president between 2009 and 2017, Barack Obama was not fortunate enough to visit Switzerland. Thankfully, Swiss fans of the former politician will soon be able to catch a glimpse of him at the Hallenstadion next month, as the ex-US president heads to Zurich as part of his latest tour. 

Tickets for An Evening with President Barack Obama on pre-sale

Tickets for the event are currently on pre-sale, with prices ranging from 59 Swiss francs right up to 564 francs for any mega-fans who want the VIP experience. The former president will arrive and deliver his show in Zurich on April 29, and will then head to Amsterdam on May 1 and Berlin on May 3. 

The now-61-year-old is set to speak on a number of interesting topics such as creativity, corporate responsibility, leadership and transformation, according to a press release. The statement also says that former President Obama will invite a number of surprise guests to speak and perform during the night, as well as give guests the opportunity to listen and have a “moderated conversation” between the former president and the audience.
