St. Nicholas Swim, 8.12.2024, 8037 Zurich
A somewhat unusual - but even the more popular - tradition is the St. Nicholas Swim. Hardened swimmers in Santa Claus costumes plunge into the Limmat every December. It is truly the coolest event in Zurich. Either you return to Pier 7 and the Frauenbadi Stadthausquai or you stay at the cult swimming pool «Oberer Letten». The atmosphere is great in both places, which is also due to the homemade soup that is served each time. Since 2011, Zürileu swimming events have been pursuing a mission: to support an organization that cares for people who are not on the sunny side of life. The buyers of a charity
ticket support the organization directly with an additional price.

Küssnachter Klausjagen, 5.12.2024, 6403 Küssnacht a. Rigi
The Küssnachter Klausjagen is one of the most ancient and impressive St. Nicholas traditions in Europe. On the evening of St. Nicholas' Eve, the village of Küssnacht am Rigi on Lake Lucerne glows with the light of about two hundred cardboard bishop's miters, lit by candles. These Iffele (bishop's miters) are carried by the men who accompany St. Nicholas on his journey through the village. The streets are full of activity: the ringing of heavy bells carried in the hands of sturdy men, the sound
of horns and above all the special rhythm of the fanfares.
