February stunning events in Switzerland! Save this February stunning events in Switzerland! Save this post📌  📍Basel Carnival, February 27 - March 1 This event is often referred to as “3 best days of the year” by locals :)  On the Monday after Ash Wednesday, locals and visitors meet at four o’clock in the morning in the dark and spooky city centre. Everything is quiet until the ‘forward march!’ of the drum majors launches the morning parade and thousands of costumed drummers and piccolo players mark the opening of the carnival. Each day has its diverse program!  📍White Turf St-Moritz, February 5th, 12th, 19th  White Turf - a very exclusive, top-class event. Fascinating horse racing sport, excellent catering, attractive music and art displays, everything packed into a unique landscape in the Swiss Alps, flooded with sun.   📍Lucerne Carnival, February 16th – 22nd  Lucerne’s scenic Old Town will be transformed into one big festival site, with merry-making, music, and dancing. A loud explosion (the Urknall or «Big Bang») at 5 in the morning of ‘Schmutzig Thursday’ (dirty Thursday) marks the start of the Lucerne Carnival.  📸 credit: Basel Carnival: @stevemartyphotography @tob_mue  White Turf: @swissexpatglobetrotter @maggieowenlondon  Lucerne Carnival: @clau_dia_si @taniatawadros 🙏  #events #event #february #carnival #fasnacht #basel #baselfasnacht #luzernfasnacht #whiteturf #luzern#lucerne #stmoritz #calendar #switzerland #suisse #schweiz
