Weekend weather in Lake Geneva region, Zurich, Locarno, for fêtes

07/08/2009 by Ellen Wallace

Fetes de Geneve, Geneva's annual musical fireworks show

Geneva, Locarno, Zurich, Switzerland (GenevaLunch) – Storms are building up and showers are promised for all areas on Saturday, not the best news for the Street Parade in Zurich or those who like to stroll around Geneve during the Fêtes de Geneve.

The good news is that skies should clear, particularly in the west, late Saturday afternoon, just in time for the big musical fireworks show in Geneva, a mustn’t miss annual event. They start at 22:00 Saturday 8 August. This year the city has added three new platforms in the lake, to the existing 12, so the show extends slightly further along the lakefront. Expect traffic, expect crowds, and find a good viewing spot early.
