Gstaad Menuhin Festival & Academy

18 July –  6 September 2025

What began with two concerts in the church in Saanen in 1957 with Yehudi Menuhin, the violinist of the century, has become one of the largest music festivals in Switzerland: the Gstaad Menuhin Festival.

The artistic director Christoph Müller has led the festival into the 21st century with great success, combining tradition and innovation, international stars and rising young talents, chamber music and symphonic music in well-balanced proportions.

From 18 July to 6 September 2025, the Gstaad Menuhin Festival & Academy presents the final chapter of its three-year cycle on change and transformation – exploring the powerful relationship between music, migration and belonging. World-class artists, moving themes and unforgettable concert experiences await in the heart of the Swiss Alps.
