Not just Jazz new and old music with many venues and lots free. Food, drinks, music , atmosphere, sun, a bucket list experience. We have bumped into Phil Collins & David Bowie in the past.

Paleo Festival Nyon

A dreamlike space is set in the meadow with colourful tents, stalls and bars. Paleo has become Switzerland’s largest open-air festival with it’s roots in the 1970s and folk as the main focus. Nowadays it has to offer different kinds of international music performers, more than 250 concerts and shows, art installations and ferry-wheels. It’s been famous for being sold out long before it starts so book in advance.

This festival is different in the way that the festival itself is the main attraction and that there is something for people of almost any age. Of course people go there because they like the top acts but there is so much more to see and experience. While the young people are dancing the older ones can sit in one of the many restaurants of all styles and enjoy quite peacefully a glass of wine, or visit one of the many arts presentations. There is even a daycare facility for the kids! I simply love this festival, I have been there many times and I will continue to go there for many more times.

Street Parade Zurich

Heavily influenced by the Love parade in Berlin, the Street Parade represents a scene of Electronic music since 1992. Since then, the event became the most colourful, peaceful and biggest outdoor techno- and house event in the world. The scenery at the beautiful lake of Zurich and with the snowy mountains in the background is simply breathtaking!
