Federal Yodelling Festival
Intro
Basel, the city of culture, expects about 10,000 participants and about 150,000 visitors.
For the first time since 1924, a Federal Yodelling Festival is to be held in Basel in the summer of 2026. In addition to around 1,000 judging performances in the categories of yodeling, alphorn blowing and flag waving, the focus at a Federal Yodeling Festival is always on socializing. The three-day event in the city on the Rhine is expected to attract 10,000 participants and 150,000 visitors. Meanwhile, the date of the 32nd Federal Yodel Festival Basel has been set. It will take place from June 26 to 28, 2026.
The Federal Yodel Festival in Basel was already scheduled for 2020, but had to be postponed by a year at that time due to the Covid 19 pandemic. Three months before the 2021 date, the event was definitely cancelled. Basel will now have its Federal Yodelling Festival in 2026 after all. In March 2022, the delegates of the Swiss Yodelling Federation (EJV) granted the Northwestern Switzerland sub-association the right to host the festival in 2026. This is outside the regular 15-year cycle of the sub-associations, as the Bernese Cantonal Yodeling Association has decided not to hold the 2026 event in favor of the canceled festival in Basel.
The festival site and venues for the active presentations are all planned centrally in downtown Basel. Details will follow at the appropriate time.
