In winter, the focus is on sports events. Every January/February, the multi-storey car park is transformed for Ice Climbing World Cup. The Allalin Races and Glacierbike Downhill attracts a large following interested in sports every spring. Various other sports events ensure that there?s no time for boredom, for Example Schneegaudi at Easter or the Horn sledge race in Saas-Grund in March. It goes without saying that there are more relaxing activities to join in with the Chain of lights, or as a torchlight hike or a luscious fondue in a romantic mountain hut. The parish church is also a regular venue for a range of concerts.
The mountain summer in Saas-Fee is especially notable for its folkloristic and musical events. Starting in July, you can enjoy weekly summer concerts performed by local clubs, such as the dancing chorus wearing traditional costumes, the alphorn friends from the glacier village, the yodeller clubs, the musics of the olden days and the music societies. Of course, there are musical highlights, such as the International Alpine Music Festival, taking place in July, and our classical music festival weeks, the Saas-Fee Raiffeisen Festival in August. Furthermore, there will again exciting Cow fightings and Alpine farmes festivals take place in July and August in the whole Saas Valley.
But there are not only musical events awaiting our visitors. Also other special summer activities to make our guests' hearts beat faster, such as the thrilling Freeski Event, the Saas-Fee Ride (July), our Festival dei Festival Lugano visits Saas-Fee (July) mountain movie days, and our 5th Nostalgic Culinary Mile in September. In autumn there is once again pure action scheduled! Then the FIS Snowboard World Cup and FIS European Cup take place again in the glacier village. Endless fun is guaranteed with a great choice of daily entertainment.
