Knabenschiessen

The "Knabenschiessen" weekend is one of Zurich's biggest public festivals. It takes place from 7-9 September 2024.

At the Knabenschiessen, one of the oldest Zurich festivals, a new King or Queen of marksperson is chosen each year, while the public can enjoy themselves at Switzerland's biggest three-day fair.

From the Hotel Alexander - centrally located in the old town of Zurich - you can reach the Schiessplatz Albisgüetli Folk Festival in no time.
