Fairs and exhibitions German-Speaking Switzerland

It's one of the art world's biggest events, born in 1970 when a group of Swiss gallery owners decided to promote their artists and works at a single fair in Basel. This was the beginning of Art Basel, the great adventure that continues to this day and now extends across the oceans. For four days in June, Basel becomes the nerve center of the world's most influential contemporary art market, showcasing works from the early ^20th century to the present day. Everything is for sale, and there's something for every budget.

The Basel Autumn Fair is the largest and oldest fair in Switzerland. It is a commercial, informative and entertaining event that attracts thousands of visitors every year. Visitors come with their families, to have fun, to ride the carousel, to taste local products on the stands. They also come to discover trades that have almost disappeared, embroidery, textiles, carpentry and manufacturers of wooden toys, but also glass blowers ...

The largest livestock market in Switzerland.

The Zurich Wine Fair is a highly original event, inviting you to climb aboard 12 boats moored near Bürkliplatz and taste over 4,200 wines from some 30 countries on 5 continents, spread over no fewer than 170 stands! Several restaurants are also open for the occasion. No fewer than 150 professionals from the wine research, production, import and trade sectors (oenologists, sommeliers) will be on hand. Wine lovers won't find anything bigger in Switzerland. Wines come from all over the world, including Swiss wines.
