A unique gala dinner will be held at Tropenhaus Frutigen on December 31st. A quality six-course menu awaits guests on the terrace, including an aperitif and plenty of entertainment. But the most exclusive thing about this special New Year’s Eve dinner is its location. While winter is deep outside in the Bernese Alps, here you can sit comfortably under banana and papaya trees and toast 2024 with this tropical holiday feeling. The cost per person is 160 francs, including aperitif, dinner and entertainment.

At Jurapark Aargau, the new year is ringing in with a focus on light pollution. The starter and main course of the New Year’s Eve dinner can be eaten comfortably at “Güggeli Sternen” in Bözberg. Then we go out into the cold winter night again. During the 2-hour walk on Bozberg, landscape guide Geri Girschwiler gives information about light pollution. Dessert is served in the warm dining room, and at the end of the evening we toast to the New Year around the fire on the terrace.

Circus Conelli has been part of the Christmas offerings of the city of Zurich for over 30 years. The tent with twinkling stars stands in the middle of the Limmat in Bauschänzli and is now part of the winter landscape. The Conelli New Year’s Eve gala is a very special experience. Dishes from the gourmet menu are rotated with spectacular show performances. Champagne is served shortly before midnight, so there’s enough time to head to the Conelli Bridge and enjoy the Zurich New Year’s Eve fireworks from the best position.

The turn of the year is always celebrated particularly intensely in Interlaken. The midnight toast on December 31st is just the beginning of the celebrations. Then on January 1, the free outdoor “Touch the Mountains” comes down to music. This year, Bastian Baker and Joya Marleen, among others, will be on the Bernese Oberland show stage from 13.00. The evening ends spectacularly with the artificial fireworks display at 19.45. But that’s not all: on January 2, the traditional Harder-Potschete is celebrated, according to tradition Hardermann people cause mischief on the streets of Interlaken.

Goitasingen – Chant da Goita is held every year on 31 December in Bergün. Although the people who keep this tradition alive are mainly local people and homesick people from Bergün, of course, guests are also allowed to participate in this beautiful tradition. Romanesque, old German and New Year’s songs are sung under the light of street lamps in 17 different venues. Shortly before New Year’s Eve, everyone gathers in the village square and sings “Un mumaint e l’ura batta”. The toast is not made with champagne, but with Röteli according to Bergün tradition.

Things are heating up on New Year’s Eve on Bern’s local mountain, Gurten. Before the legendary party really begins at Kulturschür Uptown, you can choose from a variety of culinary experiences at Gurtenpark restaurants. Whether it’s a festive New Year’s Eve buffet in the glass pavilion with the best view of the city lights, an al fresco fondue on the terrace under the starry sky, or a family experience with plenty of attractions for the littlest visitors in the Tapis Rouge restaurant: Gurten offers: New Year’s Eve is something for everyone things.

New Year’s Eve fireworks in Ascona Bay have a long tradition. Every year on January 1, the coastline is filled with people admiring the impressive fireworks display that takes place over the lake at 18.30. The best place to enjoy this New Year’s spectacle is Piazza G. Motta, directly on Lake Maggiore. If you wish, you can knock on the door with the New Year’s Concert to be given by the Locarno Chamber Orchestra at the Santa Maria della Misericordia church at 16.00 on the first day of the new year.
