Swiss National Day | Swiss Kids | Cultural Committee
Swiss National Day
Swiss National Day, set on August 5, is the national holiday of Switzerland celebrating the founding of the Swiss Confederacy by the Alpine cantons of Schwyz, Uri and Unterwalden in 1291. Swiss National Day was first celebrated in 1891 and annually since 1899. Swiss around the world join together and celebrate their love for Switzerland. This year we celebrated with a Virtual TV Show and our first online auction.
Swiss Kids Camp
Swiss Kids Camp is a fun interactive day where kids learn about Swiss culture and customs. This year our SKC event will not be livestreaming. See details of the 2024 live event!
Cultural Committee
The Swiss Cultural Committee helps promote Swiss artists and cultural events, and is a major sponsor of the Berlin and Beyond Film Festival’s Swiss window highlighting Swiss films and filmmakers.
