Swiss Festival

The Swiss Festival is back on Saturday August 2nd, turning Seaworks in Williamstown into a cosy corner of the Alps. No flights or snow gear required. From 10am to 5pm, the day celebrates Swiss tradition, clever design and comfort food that warms you from the inside out.

There will be plenty to eat (and then eat again): bubbling raclette, crispy roesti, grilled sausages, buttery pastries, crepes, alpine cheeses, pretzels and a nip of schnapps to keep the chill at bay.

In between bites, explore the Innovation Hub, where you can get hands on with everything from smart health tech to electric vehicles. It's a
modern take on Switzerland's reputation for precision and purpose.

Plus, enter the Swiss Festival Raffle for your chance to win big! The first prize is a dream holiday to Switzerland for two, including flights, luxury rail passes, alpine adventures and stays in stunning 4-star hotels — valued at over $13,500. Other prizes include a first-class Glacier Express journey, fine photographic art, a luxury V-ZUG chef’s table experience, premium Australian Open tickets, and massage sessions to help you unwind. With over $20,000 in prizes, it’s the perfect chance to treat yourself — or escape to the Alps. Don’t miss out!

There will be kids' activities, face painting, roaming quizzes, our legendary scavenger hunt with free showbags and a pet friendly atmosphere, so no one has to stay home.

Early bird tickets are $10 (until July 21), with free entry for under 18s.
