Gurtenfestival

Celebrated in the largest park in the region on Bern’s local peak, this year's Gurtenfestival will be taking place for the 41st year! There are over 100 different concerts on four stages—the main stage is at the heart of the festival with the biggest acts; the tent stage with a view of Bern will present up-and-coming artist as well as big acts; the Waldbühne is reserved for known Swiss artists; and the Campfire stage hosts Swiss up-and-coming artists and offers a campfire atmosphere. There are also three separate dance tents that are sure to keep the young crowd bopping. Camping is available nearby (Camping Eichholz), as are many hotels and youth hotels.
This year’s line-up includes Macklemore, CRO, Jeremias, Zoë Më, Nathy Peluso, Peso Pluma, Lola Young, Mustard, Will Smith, Nina Chuba, K.I.Z., and so many more.
The festival site can be reached in about 1.5 hours; it is best to take the train and either walk 20 minutes the festival grounds or take a 7-minute train ride.
Tickets are for full days; you can buy 1-day (CHF 129), 2-day (CHF 232), 3-day (CHF 309) or 4-day (CHF 361) tickets through their website.
