The Swiss Festival is the biggest Swiss event of it’s kind in Australia . It is a unique event for meeting fellow compatriots, to enjoy Swiss Drink and food as well as traditional and some not so traditional music.
Bring the children for unique entertainment with our Myths & Legends, ‘Märli Wanderweg’ or ‘Fairy tale trail’, that will lead to some amazing winning prizes.
Entertainment will be provided by the Yodlers from Melbourne & Sydney, the Dance Group plus the much anticipated ‘Guggemusik’ from Auckland, plus from Switzerland the DJ ‘Swiss Conspiracy’. There will of course be some Swiss traditional music and some modern French singing. The complete program is available on the Swiss Festival website.
Getting to Southbank is easy, it’s just across the river from Flinders Street Station or you can park off City Rd, or at the Crown multi-storey carpark.
