The family-friendly event that brings generations together!

A true mid-summer event, the Fête des Familles (Family Festival) is back on Sunday, 3 August for a friendly and festive day on the La Chaux mountain pastures overlooking Verbier, at an altitude of more than 2,000 metres.

The day will kick off at 11:00 a.m. with an open-air Mass, celebrated against the backdrop of the majestic Combins massif. After Mass, the food stands will open shop, offering an array of grilled food, crepes, raclette and ice cream, and even a sweets table.

At 12:30 p.m., it's time for the Clown Mistigri show, complete with magic tricks and poetry, which will entertain children and adults alike. The band Time Machine will then take the stage at 2 p.m., with their live rendition of catchy covers of songs from the 70s and 80s guaranteed to get festival goers of all generations up and dancing!

Also featuring on the programme is Meïno, our adorable mascot who will absolutely delight children and inject some additional fun into the day!

What's more, the huge variety of activities on offer is sure to keep everyone entertained all day long. Bouncy castles, creative workshops and outdoor games, along with temporary tattoos, slacklining and balloon sculptures will make for an unforgettable day with the family.

And that's not all: two surprise shows will be taking place, at 12:15 p.m. and 1:30 p.m. - which are sure to satisfy curious minds!

In the event of bad weather, the festival will be cancelled. More information is available on our website or on our Facebook page.
