Switzerland’s Most Beautiful Christmas Market
(1995 - 2004)
For 10 years, Pascal Bettex was the creator and president of this event, which has grown into Switzerland’s most beautiful Christmas market, attracting nearly 400,000 visitors.
The Christmas Parade
A winter carnival parade featuring floats from various local organisations alongside fire trucks, lumber trucks, and Santa Claus’s two spectacular illuminated Coca-Cola lorries. Over 10,000 astonished spectators gathered to witness the event.
The first scented concert in Switzerland
A major challenge: bringing together on the same stage cellist Nathalie Manser, arranger David Richards, a 200-child amateur choir, and a perfumer from Grasse who fills the Stravinski Auditorium with fragrance.
In front of a pool containing 30 tonnes of water, special light fountain effects accompanied by pyrotechnics.
Result: a full house giving a standing ovation to this unique concert in Switzerland!
