We celebrate Swiss Independence Day with a program of traditional Swiss entertainment. The entertainment includes choral folklore music, yodeling, flag throwing, talerschwingen, alphorn playing, and accordion music.
Volksfest is located at the Wilhelm Tell Shooting Park located on Highway O just outside of town.
Tickets will be $5 available at the event only.
The festivities continue! Visit the Swiss Center of North America at 507 Durst Rd. on August 4th from 3 pm - 5 pm for their open house. Honor the work of past President Beth Zurbuchen, see the latest addition to the New Glarus Cow Parade herd, enjoy live Swiss music and refreshments, and explore the captivating exhibits. Also, help us solve the mystery of some unknown objects in their collection.
