SUMMARY:Chästeilet is heaven for Swiss cheese lovers (Hasliberg)
DESCRIPTION:Copyright Meiringen-Hasliberg Tourismus\n\n\n\nFor years and years\, the "Chästeilet" has been marking the end of the summer. \n\n\n\nSummer is the typical season for cheese making in the Swiss Alps. During this old mountain tradition\, the farmers divide the cheese of that summer among each other in the most fairest way. Mägisalp (Hasliberg) in the Bernese Oberland is the happening place\, and crowds of spectators flock there to celebrate. \n\n\n\nIf you cannot imagine your daily life without a delicious slice of Swiss cheese\, do not miss the chance to purchase one of the beautiful yellow discs straight out of farmers' hands right there on the spot. \n\n\n\nBesides all the masses of cheese\, there is a lot of fun with traditional music\, food\, refreshments\, and flower-adorned cows measuring their way down to the valley after a few summer months spent high up in the mountains. \n\n\n\nEvents start at 11 AM\, and there will be an alpine descent at 2 PM.

DESCRIPTION:Winterthurer Musikfestwochen is back in action this year. So\, dust off your neglected fedoras\, get vaccinated\, and enjoy some sweet\, sweet live music this summer - lord knows it's been too long! \nDue to the ongoing pandemic\, the festival will look a little bit different this year\, foregoing the frenetic energy of the sardine-packed Steinbergasse stage for more spacious\, COVID-friendly venues scattered throughout the city. \n  \nThree new locations for Winterthurer Musikfestwochen\nThis year's new venues throughout Winterthur are Rychenbergpark\, Büelpark\, and Viehmarkt. At Rychenbergpark\, you will find free concerts on nine days while admission is required only from August 20 to 22.  \nBüelpark will be host to literary readings\, theater performances\, and the Band-It! competition for newcomers.

SUMMARY:Fête du Vignoble Winegrowers' Festival in Geneva
DESCRIPTION:Geneva is more than a city; this small canton has an abundance of vineyards\, too. \n\n\n\nLast summer\, we had the chance to venture away from the main action as part of the Vineyard Tour taxi bicycle tour. Geneva’s wine country is a landscape with beautiful sunflower fields and breathtaking views. The city center with its Jet d’Eau fountain appears in the distance\, as well as Lake Geneva and the Jura mountain range. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOpen wine cellars in Geneva\n\n\n\nThere is no better time to experience Geneva’s backcountry than during the annual winegrowers’ festival. For two days\, Switzerland’s third-largest wine region is opening its cellars to the curious public. \n\n\n\nMore than 50 producers are ready to present last year’s vintages - as well as their varieties from 2019 aged in oak barrels. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFor more than 1000 years\, Geneva has been producing wines. No surprise that many of today’s growers have long family traditions dating back many generations. The youngest generation is said to produce some innovative and surprising wines. \n\n\n\nGiven the fact that you will be enjoying a glass of wine here and there\, the best way to move about is by foot. Especially on Saturday with its extended hours\, you could easily hike from one village to another. \n\n\n\nAs an added benefit of hiking the Geneva vineyards\, you will learn to appreciate the three distinct regions and their impact on the wines. There is the area between the rivers Arve and Rhône (Lully\, Bernex\, Soral\, etc.)\, the area to the right of the rivers\, and the area between the Arve river and Lake Geneva (Jussy\, Anières\, Gy\, etc.) \n\n\n\nAn overview map of participating vineyards \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMore information\n\n\n\nThe festival is open to the public during the following times: \n\n\n\nFriday\, July 30\, from 4 PM to 8 PMSaturday\, July 31\, from 10 AM to 5 PM\n\n\n\nThe “pass” to two days of open cellars is a pin and a collectible tasting glass featuring the Geneva coat of arms. The cost is just 20 francs\, sold at any of the participating vineyards. \n\n\n\nCave et domaine les Perrières

SUMMARY:Sur le Pont Pop-Up Festival in Bern
DESCRIPTION:A festival of culinary and cultural delights is underway on the Kornhausbrücke in Bern... Sur le Pont is Switzerland’s biggest pop-up venue offering an array of delights for all senses! \n\n\n\nThe theme of Sur le Pont Bern is Vo Bärn - Für Bärn\, which translates to From Bern – for Bern. This means that visitors will experience delicacies made from only regionally sourced and produced ingredients. And not only that\, the food trucks change every two weeks\, giving opportunities to a multitude of caterers. \n\n\n\nThe Talent Stage is a venue for songwriters and musicians from Bern. They will have the opportunity to showcase their talents\, meanwhile wow-ing the audience. And finally\, four young Bernese designers get to display their artful collections inside a minibus parked on the bridge. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOutdoor movies provided by Allianz Open-Air Cinema Bern\n\n\n\nThere is great news for film lovers\, too! Allianz Cinema's open-air theater is providing entertainment in three different types of programs: the Early Bird Cinema for early risers to enjoy the sunrise on the bridge\, the Lunch Cinema for entertainment during the lunch break\, and the Family Cinema in the afternoon for parents and children. \n\n\n\nA children's program is available every Wednesday from 2 to 5 PM. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSustainability is the idea\n\n\n\nLikely the world’s longest pop-up festival located on a bridge\, Sur le Pont stresses the importance of sustainability. The festival’s refrigerators are entirely powered by numerous colored solar panels. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nCovid regulations\n\n\n\nDue to the festival’s popularity\, the federal government stipulates that visitors may only enter the Kornhausbrücke site with a valid Covid certificate. To make it as easy as possible for guests\, "Sur le Pont" offers a free on-site rapid antigen test at the Covid testing center. \n\n\n\nMon to Fri 11:30 AM to 10 PMSat/Sun noon - 10 PM

SUMMARY:Neuchâtel International Fantastic Film Festival NIFFF
DESCRIPTION:Fans of genre cinema don't want to miss out on a world-renowned Swiss film festival: the Neuchâtel International Fantastic Film Festival. \nBack for its 20th edition this summer\, NIFFF is the one and only genre film festival in Switzerland\, showcasing a variety of films from five continents. The selected films fall broadly into one or more of three main categories: Fantasy\, Asian Cinema\, and Digital Images. \nThe festival website has a bit more fun in bestowing the films with unique descriptions\, such as apocalyptic zombie comedy (Get the Hell Out\, Taiwan)\, fungal eco-horror (Gaia\, South Africa)\, and techno-mystical survival (In the Earth\, U.K.). \nAs with any film festival\, the entries are also in the running for various awards\, including an international competition and an H.R. Giger award for the best Swiss shorts. \n  \nWhen is the 2021 Neuchâtel International Fantastic Film Festival?\nThe NIFFF runs from July 2 to 10 at six venues throughout Neuchâtel\, including one open-air theater. The festival will be showcasing over 50 feature films\, as well as assorted shorts and immersive VR productions. \n  \nSome highlights from the program of NIFFF 2021\nDue to the ongoing pandemic\, the seating capacity for each film will be limited this year\, with only 100 tickets available for indoor showings and 264 for the open-air venue. Tickets can be purchased online for 16 francs each\, though multi-passes and festival passes are also available for die-hard filmgoers. \nAs a half-Filipina\, I'm particularly looking forward to the feature Midnight in a Perfect World by filmmaker Dodo Dayao. \nSet in a near-utopian Manila in the not-too-distant future where power outages are nonetheless still frequent occurrences\, the film explores the horrors lurking in the darkness\, likely a metaphor for the trauma of living through years of martial law imposed by Marcos’ dictatorship in the 1970s and 80s\, and the ongoing brutal and deadly war on drugs of Duterte’s Philippines. \n(Copyright NIFFF)\n \nAnother film that has piqued my interest is the documentary A Glitch in the Matrix. It explores simulation theory\, or the idea that reality as we know it is not reality at all and that we are all living in a video game-like simulation controlled by a higher intelligence. \nFor fans of science fiction and conspiracy theories\, this film will have you debating about the concept of free will with your friends and family all summer. \n(Copyright NIFFF)\n \nFor fans of virtual reality\, NIFFF is also showcasing an assortment of immersive experiences this year. Consider the Taiwanese satirical comedy Great Hoax: The Moon Landing in which you get to fake a moon landing for the Taiwanese government. \nAlternatively\, if you’ve ever wondered what it would be like to be a bat\, you’re in luck\, thanks to the Swiss VR short Batvision. \nThere's something for everyone at this one-of-a-kind film festival\, all set in the charming lakeside town of Neuchâtel. \n  \nDon't miss out and book your tickets before it's too late!\n \nView the full program and buy your festival tickets online\n \n \nPublished by Stephanie Bowman

SUMMARY:Why not to miss the World Press Photo Exhibition 2021 (Bellinzona)
DESCRIPTION:(Photograph copyright Mads Nissen\, Politiken/Panos Pictures)\n \nHere is the chance to catch the touring World Press Photo Exhibition in a very unique place: Monte Carasso.\n\nHigh above Bellinzona\, this traveling exhibition will return to a historic basement for the seventh time. Truly\, the stone walls of the SpazioReale make for a perfect setting to display photography. And those who have never visited Monte Carasso could combine the exhibit with the nearby Tibetan bridge.\n\nWorld Press Photo depicts the world through the eyes of press photographers. Whenever a catastrophe occurs\, these brave men and women are there to capture humanity at its most vulnerable. Whether it is the Coronavirus pandemic\, the refugee crisis\, wars and conflicts\, societal concerns\, or protests\, press photographers are on the ground to chronicle the action and share their views with the rest of us.\n \nWorld Press Photo Exhibition 2021 showcases roughly 140 photographs. Among others\, it covers some important current issues such as the 50th anniversary of women's voting rights.\n\nThis year\, the exhibit is also honoring a work that illustrates the human toll of the Coronavirus pandemic. Mads Nissen's "The First Embrace" was shot on August 5\, 2020\, in Sao Paulo\, Brazil. The photograph shows Rosa Luzia Lunardi\, a senior citizen\, being embraced at her nursing home. The photograph is significant as it captures Ms. Lunardi receiving the first hug after five months without physical contact.\n\nOpening hours: Mon - Fri from 3:00 to 7:00 PM\, Sat/Sun/holidays from 10:00 AM to 7:00 PM\nAdmission: Adults 10 francs; children from 6 to 16 years/students/retirees 7 francs\n \n(Photographs copyright SpazioReale)

SUMMARY:Lynchian Vibes in Olten - INFINITE DEEP DAVID LYNCH
DESCRIPTION:More than 3000 visitors have dived into the latest photography exhibit of David Lynch on show in Olten\, Switzerland. \nMulholland Drive\, Elephant Man\, or the cult television series Twin Peaks are some of David Lynch's biggest successes as a filmmaker. But not everyone may be aware that the acclaimed filmmaker is also an avid painter and photographer. \nHis latest photography exhibition\, INFINITE DEEP\, is currently showing at Haus der Fotografie in Olten. This venue has the distinct honor of being the first gallery in Europe to host the exhibition. INFINITE DEEP runs until the end of June\, so make sure you book your tickets now.\n  \nThoughts from a recent visit to the David Lynch exhibit in Olten\nFor those familiar with David Lynch’s body of work\, Infinite Deep shouldn’t be too much of a shock to the system. The artist/filmmaker is known for subverting idyllic suburban dreamlands by distorting them into nightmarish hellscapes. He likes to create a sense of unease in his audience\, and finds beauty in what lurks beneath the façade of perfection.  \nInfinite Deep is an intimate journey through his vision as an artist. Spanning three floors\, the exhibition showcases several decades’ worth of Lynch’s photographic work\, as well as a short film. The melancholic and eerie ‘Polish Night Music’ score\, composed by Lynch and collaborator Marek Zebrowski\, is played throughout the gallery\, perfectly setting the scene for the exhibition.  \nSome of the images on display on the ground floor\, from the series "Portraits" (2008)\, are reminiscent of the no-holds-barred "Twin Peaks: The Return\," from 2017. One can already see the machinations of Lynch’s mind in these photographs\, masterfully manipulated on Photoshop to remove masks and reveal what is hidden beneath.\n  \nFrom the "Portraits" collection (2008):\n \nOn the first floor\, visitors can explore Lynch’s "Nudes" and "Distorted Nudes" series\, the latter of which is displayed in a room restricted to those over the age of 16. In "Distorted Nudes"\, Lynch wields Photoshop like a madman's machete\, mutilating and dismembering what appears\, from a distance\, to be a perfectly normal collection of old erotic photographs. \n \nOn display on the third floor are the "Snowmen" and "Factories" series\, again revealing the artist’s fascination with decay and disintegration. "Snowmen" shows what happens after the joy and excitement of assembling snowmen wears off\, the parts we never get to see in family photos and popular films. Factories functions in the same way\, showing what happens to formerly lively industrial buildings\, abandoned and left to the mercy of nature.\n  \nHere is a peek at the "Snowmen" series (1993)\, a collection of photographs of abandoned snowmen melting away in families’ front yards. The dark humour of Lynch’s work is on full display in these images:\n \nA short\, animated film entitled "Fire" is also shown in a small room on the second floor\, accompanied by unsettling string music by Polish musicians Penderecki String Quartet. Lynch created the animation in 2015 but released it to the public during the lockdown in 2020. Bearing in mind the social isolation we’ve all experienced in the past year\, this short film becomes all the more relatable.\n  \nThe Gallery\nHoused in what was formerly a natural history museum\, the House of Photography has been renovated into a sleek\, modern gallery with excellent lighting\, spearheaded and funded by the International Photo Festival Olten (IPFO).  \nThe House of Photography team\, though new to the museum scene\, are passionate and hardworking\, attested by how they assembled this impressive exhibition. Enlisting the expertise of curator Nathalie Herschdorfer was a stroke of genius\, as she displays the photographs in a way that seamlessly draws the eye over the images in a fluid motion. \n \nDon't miss out on the opportunity to see Lynch's disturbing but fascinating art up close and personal!\nThe House of Photography is truly a gem and is sure to put the town of Olten on the cultural and artistic map. Infinite Deep has been extended until July 25th so you still have time to experience the weird world of David Lynch! \nGet your tickets now and receive a 25% discount on the admission by traveling to Olten by train. Simply use the code LYNCHTRAIN25.  \nFor those interested in photography in general\, this year’s International Photo Festival will be running from August 25 to 29. With over 60 workshops and masterclasses\, this will be your chance to mingle with like-minded people and brush shoulders with some of the best international photographers. The program will be released at the end of July on this website.\n

SUMMARY:"Sauvage" is the perfect exhibit for families this summer
DESCRIPTION:The temporary exhibition "Sauvage" at the Natural History Museum in Neuchâtel is an eye-opening experience for children and adults alike. \n\n\n\nThe title "Sauvage" (French for "wild") conjures up many different interpretations from every individual\, so the curators asked people what word they thought of when they heard the word sauvage. They have then adorned the entrance to the exhibition with the most common responses. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSauvage is an immersive and interactive exhibition\, seeking to make learning fun for the whole family.\n\n\n\nThis temporary exhibit touches on themes such as mass tourism and extinction. It aims to show children (and remind adults) that animals are sentient and intelligent beings that have more in common with us than we like to believe. \n\n\n\nIt’s a great way to educate ourselves on the fragility of life on our planet. And it forces us to rethink why we believe ourselves to be the master race and why we exploit animals the way we do. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nIf you are courageous enough to enter the seemingly alive object in the middle of a dark room\, you will be rewarded with a high-definition recording of animal sounds and vocalizations. Meanwhile\, the massive figure enveloping you inhales and exhales\, making for an exhilarating\, multi-sensory experience.  \n\n\n\nContinuing with the "wild" theme\, the exhibition also poses the question of what is still considered wild when it comes to animals. \n\n\n\nA video showing a serene vista of gazelle frolicking and feeding is quickly turned on its head when we view the screen on the other side of the wall\, revealing what goes on behind the scenes of a safari in Kenya. Is mass tourism blurring the definition of "wild"? \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nA perfect exhibit for the summer break\n\n\n\nThe education doesn’t stop there\, as there are plenty of interactive games and videos for families to enjoy\, including one where you listen to animal noises and try to figure out which of two animals is emanating the sound. The answers may surprise you! \n\n\n\nAfter exploring the indoor exhibition\, you can step into the courtyard to marvel at the work of artist Paolo Grassino\, depicting the hostility and vulnerability of the human species. \n\n\n\nThose wanting to extend their "Sauvage" experience may even camp in the courtyard overnight. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe exhibition runs until August 29\, so there is plenty of time to visit during the summer holidays. \n\n\n\nPlease note: the exhibition is mostly in French\, with some text written in German. An English-speaking guide can be requested for those who would like a more intimate tour. \n\n\n\nThe museum is open from Tuesday to Sunday\, 10 AM to 6 PM. Admission is 8 francs for adults\, 4 francs for students\, and free of charge for children 16 and under.

SUMMARY:Ascona Jazz Night
DESCRIPTION:For one night only\, the charming town of Ascona will turn into a metropolis of live music. \nWhen you walk along the plaza by the lake or skip from one alley to another\, there will be vibes of Chicago\, Nashville or New Orleans in the air. More than two dozen acts are expected to perform on various stages and street corners in Ascona. There will be Blues\, Brass\, Brazilian Samba\, Dixieland\, Funk\, Gospel\, Jazz\, Pop\, Swing and Vocal.  \nFor instance\, take Romina a.k.a.

Or Brazzini\, a Brass band that will wander the streets - "live and unplugged." \nNot to be confused with JazzAscona\, the ten day festival taking place in June\, Ascona Jazz Night is a unique opportunity to experience this town from a new angle. We expect a relaxed setting and are hoping for a warm night! \nWhat better place to stay than the Jazz Hotel Ascona?\nWe have booked our room at the newly renovated Jazz Hotel Ascona\, located just a few steps from the main action. The interior reflects the name of the hotel as there are music posters all over the place! If we find any time to sleep at all\, we will surely dream to the tunes of Miles\, Duke and Louis... \n(Photograph copyright Jazz Hotel Ascona)

SUMMARY:Traditional Swiss Cow Fighting (Leukerbad)
DESCRIPTION:Imagine bullfighting in Spain. \nNow\, take away the bullring\, heat\, bulls and torreros and add mountains\, snow and a bunch of temperamental black cows with huge bells around their necks. \nWe are talking about Swiss cow fighting. These cow fights involve less human influence and violence compared to bullfighting. Instead\, fighting is a part of a cows' natural behavior for determining their place of dominance in the herd's hierarchy. \n \nEight typical Hérens cows from Valais will fight each other in a direct duel\, and the winner will be honored as the Queen. The traditional cow fights in Leukerbad offer a unique atmosphere\, and admission is free. So\, before you soak in those warm Leukerbad springs\, make sure you visit Flaschen for this event! \n(Photos copyright Leukerbad Tourismus/torrent.ch)

SUMMARY:The LES MISÉRABLES Musical is coming to Zürich in 2020
DESCRIPTION:Exciting times are coming up for Switzerland. For the first time in its history\, Swiss audiences will be enjoying the original English version of LES MISÉRABLES in 2020. \nThe brilliant new staging is inspired by the paintings of Victor Hugo and his classic novel. Paired with its beloved melodies\, this musical has everything it takes to make our start into the new year a happy one. \nWhat you need to know about the LES MISÉRABLES Musical\nLES MISÉRABLES is the world’s longest running and most loved musical. It has garnered 100 prestigious international awards to its name. Inspired by Victor Hugo's novel\, this modern classic musical is as groundbreaking today as it was during its first premier in London in 1985. \nIt is an epic tale of redemption and passion. It is packed with an emotional wallop that continues to thrill worldwide audiences of all ages. Seen and enjoyed by over 120 million people in 52 countries and 22 languages\, LES MISÉRABLES is truly one of the world's best musicals. \nIn nineteenth century France\, Jean Valjean is an ex-convict who has been imprisoned for 19 years for stealing a bread loaf. Upon his release\, he receives mistrust and mistreatment everywhere he goes. This is until Bishop Myriel helps him to start a new life. However\, police inspector Javert hunts Valjean\, who has been living under the name Monsieur Madeleine... \nFinally\, a tragic climax. During the 1832 Paris student uprising\, Valjean spares his life to save that of the student revolutionary. The latter had captured the heart of the main character’s adopted daughter Cosette. Disgusted and horrified\, Javert commits suicide and Valjean attains the peace that he has sought for so long. \n \nAbout the original English version on tour\nWith countless hours of rehearsals between actors\, musicians and technicians\, each performance of the musical will transport you back to the France of the 19th century. The stunning Killian Donnelly is playing the lead role of Jean Valjean. Nic Greenshields will play Javert\, and gorgeous Katie Hall will be in the role of Fantine. \nYou will see Martin Ball\, Harry Apps\, Will Richardson\, Nicholas Corre\, Brian James Leys\, Ruben Van Keer\, Lee Ormsby\, and many others on stage. Other female ensembles will include Jamie Birkett\, Helen Aylott\, Mary-Jean Caldwell\, Bronwen Hanson and Megan Gardiner. The entire touring production is directed by James Powell and multi award-winner Laurence Connor. \nThe orchestra will perform operatic passages while reflecting feelings through their voices overflowing with sorrow\, joy\, and\, cries\, and giggles. The cast will perform in a way to keep every scene taut\, tense and perfectly timed. \nA musical that's all but miserable\nBasically\, what we are trying to say is that LES MISÉRABLES is sure to fill your soul with romance and throb. Cameron Mackintosh\, composer Claude-Michel Schönberg\, and musical script writer\, Alain Boublil\, have already successfully collaborated on several occasions. Among other productions\, LES MISÉRABLES and Miss Saigon went down in musical history. \nThe show is said to take approximately 2 hours 30 minutes\, including an interval. This is the original English version.. \nThe musical will take place from January 21 to February 23\, 2020. While this is still a while away\, why not secure tickets already? \nTheater 11\nThurgauerstrasse 7\n8050 Zürich\nPhone: 044 265 56 01 \n \n(Photographs copyright musical.ch)

Yet just a couple of decades ago\, video games were looked at as a gimmick. \nThis spring\, the Swiss National Museum in Zürich is dedicating a temporary exhibit to the history of video games. \nAs one of the world's top leisure activities\, video games have surely established themselves in popular culture. (Globally\, some 2.5 billion people play video games!) The evolution from Commodore 64 to today's virtual reality experiences in cyberspace is remarkable. \nThis exhibit looks at the 50-years old history of electronic games\, giving visitors lots of opportunities to get hands on. When is the last time you played Pacman? Personally\, I cannot wait to see this exhibit and get my game on... Who knows? I might even start to spend my lunch hours there! \nTest your skills in this browser based game especially developed for the exhibit. \nOpening hours: Tue - Sun 10 AM to 5 PM\, Thu 10 AM to 7 PM\, closed on Mon \nMore information \n \n(All photographs copyright Swiss National Museum)

SUMMARY:photoSCHWEIZ is coming back to Zürich in 2020
DESCRIPTION:Once the holiday dust has settled and the new year has kicked off\, we are always glad to find inspiration at photoSCHWEIZ. \nYou may remember the previous editions of Switzerland's largest photography exhibit\, such as photo19. In 2020\, the organizers have rebranded the exhibit to simply photoSCHWEIZ. \nMore than 300 photographers will be displaying their best works\, whereby 200 photographs will be part of the regular exhibit. The remaining pieces will be spread among 18 special exhibitions covering everything from documentary to nature photography. \nOne such exhibit is entitled "Doomed Paradise"\, a long term documentation of the rain forests of Borneo. Photographer Tomas Wüthrich has traveled there multiple times in order to visit with local residents who are fighting deforestation. I am particularly interested in this show because the recent feature film\, Paradise War\, about Bruno Manser\, has brought the Penan people back into popular consciousness. \nphotoSCHWEIZ workshops\nThose who want to further their photography skills or are considering a career as a photographer should look into the 120 workshops. Topics range from travel photography to aerial photography (held in English). \nphotoSCHWEIZ is open daily from 11 AM to 8 PM and tickets are available online.\n \n(Photograph copyright Ruth Spiller/photoSCHWEIZ)

SUMMARY:Pong! The Vintage Computer Festival is coming back to Zürich
DESCRIPTION:Vintage computer festivals are held across the world. And once again this November\, there's one coming back to Zürich! \nRelive the home computer years\, but also experience computers from from the 1950's to the 1970's. Remember the blinked rows of lights on massive front panels\, hidden in research labs\, universities and big companies? There is no admission for kids\, and they will be well catered for with a large Vintage Gaming section. \nExhibitors (both private collectors and museums) have made great efforts to engage families with children\, and not just computer enthusiasts\, with a varied\, fun but also educational experience. As it turns out\, a big computer from 1970 is not so hard to understand for people today. \nThe event is hosted in the Rote Fabrik at Seestrasse 395. \nFollow them on Twitter or check out the photo gallery from 2016.

SUMMARY:Traditional Onion Market - Zibelemärit (Bern)
DESCRIPTION:At the end of the chilly month of November\, Bern wakes up in the dark hours for the annual Onion Market. This tradition has been praising the humble little vegetable for nearly 200 years. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe one time of the year Bern goes bunkers over onions\n\n\n\nHere's what the atmosphere at the Onion Market is like: You see tons of perfected onion tresses all around you\, the smell of mulled wine\, garlic bread\, and onion pies is in the air\, there is confetti covering the streets (and people) and now and then you’re softly being hit by a squeaky hammer. \n\n\n\nThe masses of onions in this market are unbelievable. In 2015\, farmers from near and far sold nearly 60 tons of onions! \n\n\n\nThe best way to embrace this popular and very down-to-earth tradition is to put on your peppermint sugar bead necklace\, see and eat around\, and stroll among the busy streets of Bern until dawn. Countless stands not only offer onions but different local delicacies and crafts. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMy advice: To avoid the crowds\, visit the market before 6 AM.\n\n\n\nFor the truly brave\, the traditional Zibeleschwümme (Onion Swim) takes place on the Sunday before the market. At 1 PM at the Schönausteg\, watch the daredevil swimmers immerse in the bitterly cold Aare river.

SUMMARY:Circus Conelli is a Christmas tradition in Zürich
DESCRIPTION:Update from Nov 25\, 2019: We can no longer endorse this circus.\n\n\n\nAt tonight's VIP premiere\, the host urged us to spread the word if we like the show\, but not to share anything if we did not like it. The first half of the show was nothing to write home about. It was simply average. \n\n\n\nThen\, the mayor of Zurich\, Mrs. Corine Mauch\, introduced the second half. We wonder whether she knew about the racist clown number that would follow... Picture a cowboy patronizing a dumb Native American. The cowboy goes on to whip the Native American. \n\n\n\nThe so-called "VIP audience"\, including the former head of SVP\, Christoph Blocher\, was roaring about the dumb clowns and their embarrassing jokes in Swiss-English. We felt appalled by the insensitivity of this circus and we would urge Circus Conelli to remove this act. \n\n\n\nWe live in the 21st century and we feel deeply ashamed that an insensitive\, racist clown act can be performed right in the heart of Zürich.

SUMMARY:Visit Santa Claus at Rochers de Naye! (Montreux Noël)
DESCRIPTION:High above Lake Geneva is the peak of Rochers de Naye\, a destination reachable by cogwheel train from Montreux. \nThis Winter Wonderland is not only a favorite among those looking for a refreshing getaway\, but also among a bearded man and his helpers: Santa Claus! That's right: in his hut (which is conveniently accessible from the railway station)\, the old man welcomes children of all ages during the holidays. \nA photograph with Santa Claus at Rochers de Naye\nBeyond the magic tunnel with its flashing lights\, there is a small stage for the meet-and-greet and the picture taking. As we found out on our recent trip\, Santa Claus speaks many different languages - from Russian to Japanese\, English and French. There is an official photographer\, but anyone is allowed to take their own pictures at no charge. \n \nDuring Montreux Noël\, Santa Claus can be visited Wednesdays through Sundays\, as well as on Monday\, Dec 23\, and Tuesday\, Dec 24\, 2019.\n \nBut Rochers de Naye offers plenty of activities and things to see during any day of the festive season. The kids can gather stamps on a scavenger hunt and they can even peek into Santa's bedroom. Meanwhile\, the scenic panorama at 2042 meters above sea invites for memorable selfies. \nRestaurant Le Coucou in Caux\nOn our way back to Montreux Noël\, we hopped off the cogwheel train in Caux above Mntreux. Just footsteps from the station is Restaurant Le Coucou\, a charming chalet serving local favorites. Try the cheese platter for some unique local fromage: \n\n  \nMore information about Santa Claus at Rochers de Naye\nA part of Montreux Noël\, Santa's House at Rochers de Naye offers a perfect excursion for families. Check the website of MOB GoldenPass for various special offers combining the return trip and visit of Santa's House. Reservations are required as seats are limited. \nThe train to Rochers de Naye leaves from Montreux hourly starting from 9:17 AM to 3:17 PM. \nMore information about Montreux Noël\, and here is a post about our previous visit.
