Northeastern Switzerland Yodeling Festival Altstätten 2025
Description
4 to 6 July 2024
Yodellers, flag-wavers, alphorn players and 35,000 visitors will transform the pretty town of Altstätten into a festival location where the focus is on conviviality and the cultivation of customs.
The North-East Switzerland Yodeling Festival will take place in the idyllic St. Gallen Rhine Valley from 4 to 6 July 2025 to mark the 75th anniversary of the Altstätten Yodeling Club. The charming historic market town of Altstätten will thus become the venue for the second largest yodelling event in Switzerland. Around 3,000 active yodelers, flag-wavers, alphorn and brass players will perform. In addition to the competition performances, the focus is on socializing in the lovingly designed yodelling village, culinary delights and the cultivation of customs. On Saturday, there will be a large craft and customs market. The highlight is Sunday with the ceremony in the morning and the big parade in the afternoon through the old town of Altstätten, ending in the yodeling village. Let yourself be enchanted by the fascination of this unique event, which is all about Swiss customs, Alpine traditions and folklore.
