The Lucerne carnival is unique among the various carnival customs in Central Switzerland and is huge, especially all the preparations. The big bang will just take place on Thursday, February 8, 2024 at 5 a.m. on the Chapel Square. The Lucerne parade will start also on Thursday at 1.45 pm from the courtyard. Arriving in Lucerne by ship or enjoying a cruise around the lake with an unforgettable view of the city and the mountains is just one of the many ways to enjoy your time in Lucerne.
The world-famous Chapel Bridge with the water tower was built around 1360 and has today a length of more than 200 meters.
The colorful festival delights people of all ages. The creative costumes and lively Guggenmusik music bring the streets of the city to life and drive out of winter. Here is just one of the many funny decorated show windows.
Thanks for stopping by, have a lovely day!
