Rapperswil-Jona will become the epicenter of the Swiss festival landscape from 19 to 21 June 2026. The Lake & Sound Festival is something new - personal, informal and right on the lake.
Marc Sway is fulfilling a long-cherished dream: as curator and host, he welcomes the audience to his side. Together with the organizer Carré Event AG, he is celebrating a premiere in the Swiss festival landscape. Switzerland has never experienced a music festival this close and personal.
On Friday and Saturday, twelve national and international acts will light up the two stages "Fischmarktplatz" and "Curtiplatz":
Milow is one of the most successful singer-songwriters in Europe. With his warm voice, deep melodies and genuine stage presence, he delivers intimate, touching moments. An act made for the sunset over Lake Zurich.
Lo & Leduc, the dialect pop duo, bring Swiss charm and infectious energy to the stage.
Valentino Vivace revives the splendor of Italo disco. With glittering synths, danceable beats and Italian charm. Retro, futuristic and simply vivace!
Marc Sway & Friends round off the line-up. The host himself will be performing on stage with special guests from the music scene. More acts will follow.
Those who love electronic music will find their place at the Day Dance at the Kapuzinerzipfel, for carefree dancing in the lounge area right by the water.
Sunday belongs to the families. On Fischmarktplatz, the Schwiizergoofe with their workshop and the ChinderHelde invite you to an interactive program with music and games. Face painting, games and surprises round off the day. Children up to 10 years have free admission, from 11 to 15 years a 50 percent discount applies.
In addition to the music, street food creations by star chef Stefan Heilemann (Widder Hotel, Zurich) and around 20 selected street food stalls will provide culinary highlights. Street art installations and lovingly designed lounge areas underline the boutique character of the festival.
For those who prefer the all-round carefree package: the VIP packages offer the best food and music with an optimal view.
