VSNZ Winter Arc returns to the Bernese Alps from March 6-8, 2026 with world-class melodic techno and house.

Returning 6-8 March 2026, VSNZ Winter Arc reopens its portal to a new chapter, driven by the sounds of Argy, Carlita, CamelPhat and more. Following a sold-out debut in 2025, the sophomore outing is ready to welcome 6,000 ravers in the Swiss Alps, expanding the festival and delivering an even bolder alpine getaway.

Kicking off on Friday, 6 March at the Terminal stage in Grindelwald, the first day of the festival is unticketed and open to anyone who wants a taste of VSNZ Winter Arc. It is an opportunity to witness the opening ritual of the festival, while warming up for the headliner sets that will take over the weekend.

The next day, ravers will ascend to 2,225 metres above sea level, reaching Männlichen Bergstation. This is where the real experience begins, with the iconic Arc taking life once and forever. Carlita, HoneyLuv and Sebastian Konrad will move the mountains, just before Argy closes the day presenting NEWORLD.

On Sunday, CamelPhat, Cassian and Fideles headline the final stop of the journey, where the portal opens fully and the Arc reveals itself for one last monumental surge of light and sound.

The VSNZ Winter Arc experience however doesn’t end when the music fades from the mountains, as official after-parties return to Grindelwald each night, carrying the energy long after sunset and deep into the evening.

The VSNZ Winter Arc Setting

Set in Grindelwald, one of Switzerland’s most picturesque villages, the festival is surrounded by iconic peaks including the Eiger, Mönch and Jungfrau. Their glaciers shape the horizon and make nature the main visual aspect of every chapter that is written with each day spent in the Bernese Alps.

Beloved by adventurers, artists and explorers, every winter, the landscape is home to world-class skiing, tobogganing and snowshoeing on hundreds of kilometres of pistes and trails.

Situated at the base of the tall mountains, Grindelwald is also the perfect town to experience the rich Swiss culture of mountaineering. With timber chalets, cosy cafés and a long-standing tradition, Grindelwald is one of Switzerland’s oldest mountain destinations, showcasing the classic alpine charm of the country.

It is within this setting that VSNZ Winter Arc takes shape. A festival defined as much by its surroundings as by its sound. Experience the soundtrack of the mountains over three days in the famous Swiss Alps, dancing to the sounds of CamelPhat, CarlitaArgy and many others. Passes are available on the official VSNZ Winter Arc website, starting from Fr. 74.
