Dear

Party time in Switzerland!

The big bash begins in Central Switzerland where music stars from all over the world rendez-vous at the shores of deep-blue Lake Lucerne. Guests this year include eccentric pop wonder Mika, urban rockers The Kills and beautiful jazz bassist/singer Esperanza Spalding.

Film fans will get their money's worth at the 65th Locarno Film Festival, which ranks among the most prestigious international film events in Europe, together with Cannes and Venice.

At the renowned Alpinathlon you can test your personal fitness or you can climb the mountains by train and celebrate the Jungfrau Centenary with our special offer.
