International Literature Festival

Clear mountain air and clear words: Stories, poems and talks await you at the international literature festival - on stage and off stage while hiking and thermal bathing. 35 to 40 authors and scientists will present their works during the festival weekend in the middle of the Valais mountains, linking current literature with the pressing questions of our time.

Remarks

All contributors can be found in the spring on the festival website. The program booklet will be sent out in May; you can also order it for free without purchasing a ticket. The detailed program (Who is reading when? Where?), will be published online approximately two weeks before the festival and will be available at the festival office.
