A summer to discover in Lugano!

A special situation, increased security measures, but still lots of fun for the summer in Lugano!

The tenth edition of LongLake Festival has been reshaped to guarantee a presence of events throughout the summer, to be enjoyed in safety...

LongLake Festival, which this year reaches its tenth edition, is preparing to mark the summer of Lugano through a daily program for citizens and visitors. Despite important changes compared to what was initially planned, the programme schedule of LongLake Festival is full of stimuli and suggestions, developing in different locations and guaranteeing the safety of the spectators, in order to fully enjoy the intense programme of shows. A program still in-progress, the result of joint work with many partners.

An example of the activities are the markets of local products, every Friday and Saturday evening on the lakeside of Lugano and until the end of August.

In addition, weekend evenings are planned in Piazza Manzoni or Piazza della Riforma, small concerts of various small Swiss realities. Music to discover and that will surely create atmosphere in the warm Luganese evenings. For example, this week from June 25th the concerts will be organized by BluestoBop and therefore there will be artists of blues music.

The program is constantly updated and you can consult it on longlake.ch or download the app!
