Mountain Academy

Peak Better Together!

THE SECOND ACADEMY EDITION.

During the festival, a large number of musicians and other industry players come to Zermatt. Acts who come to the Zermatt Unplugged Festival have always found the local people and the surroundings to be a source of inspiration that stimulates creativity and invites people to linger. Video shoots and collaborations emerged spontaneously. New acquaintances were made, new songs were written.

After 2021, the second edition of the Zermatt Unplugged Mountain Academy will take place during this year's festival. The focus is on promoting the up-and-coming scene and connecting all industry players on site. With networking events, masterclasses, joint hikes and concert visits, the Academy connects the newcomer scene with the national and international music scene that is in Zermatt during the festival. Under this year's motto "Peak Better Together", a special place of inspiration and exchange is once again being created at the foot of the Matterhorn.
