The events take place at Seehofseeli in Davos and in Silvretta Park in Klosters. Out of respect for nature and wildlife, there will be no fireworks.

At the street festival "davos@promenade," the Swiss dialect musician DODO will be performing his well-known hits – including "Hippie-Bus" – at the Seehofseeli lake in Davos Dorf, creating a fantastic atmosphere and inviting the audience to sing and dance along. Admission is free. The program continues on National Day: From 9:00 to 11:00 a.m., the Weber Bakery and the Hotel Parsenn invite guests to the traditional August 1st brunch at the Parsenn Gada. The official festivities begin at 11:00 a.m., followed by a speech from a municipal representative at approximately 11:30 a.m. A traditional highlight is the serving of the popular Davos barley soup by members of the government around noon. The soup is provided by the municipality of Davos and the Davos Klosters destination. This year's Swiss National Day celebration will be accompanied musically by the Davos Klosters Music Society and the Alpenrose Alphorn Trio. More information about the Davos National Day celebration
