Veranstaltungsdetails
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 judged performances in the yodelling, alphorn blowing and flag-waving categories, the focus at a Federal Yodelling 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 festival-goers.
The Federal Yodelling Festival in Basel was already planned for 2020, but had to be postponed by a year due to the Covid-19 pandemic. The event was definitively canceled three months before the 2021 date. Basel will now hold its Federal Yodelling Festival in 2026 after all. In March 2022, the delegates of the Swiss Yodelling Association (EJV) awarded the Northwestern Switzerland sub-association the right to host the event in 2026. This is outside of the regular 15-year cycle of the sub-associations, as the Bernese Cantonal Yodelling Association is foregoing the 2026 event in favor of the cancelled festival in Basel.
The festival site and the venues for the performances of the active participants are all planned centrally in Basel city center. Details will follow in due course.
