Yodelling festivals are definitely having a moment. Once a niche event where connoisseurs of Swiss traditions and customs flocked to listen to the alphorn and marvel at masterful flag-throwing displays, these festivals now also attract a wider public who come more for the fun and friendly atmosphere and to enjoy a day out with a difference. You may have already heard about the upcoming 63rd Central Switzerland Yodelling Festival. But you might not know that it is now easier and cheaper to get to the festival thanks to vbl, Lucerne’s public transport provider, and FAIRTIQ.
