Bundesfiir on the Rhine

On Friday, July 31, 2026, Basel celebrates like every year with a large fireworks display on the Rhine into the Swiss National Day.

Hop on board the Rhystärn and enjoy an atmospheric evening with glow sticks for everyone, music to dance to, culinary delights, and of course the exclusive view of the old town, the fireworks, and the whole spectacle right in the middle on the Rhine.
