Destination - JAZZ

As Wikipedia tells us The Montreux Jazz Festival is a music festival in Switzerland, held annually in early July in Montreux on the Lake Geneva shoreline. It is the second largest annual jazz festival in the world after Canada's Montreal International Jazz Festival .
In reality a tiny Swiss village is turned into music lovers Mecca for those two weeks. Ideal time for corporate days out, meeting up with friends and having 24/7 fun with daily evening concerts, featuring various artists from classical jazz icons to Green Day and Prince.

So,the Montreux "village" looks like this


But during the festival it is like this:



Chaika Events is proud again to be the part of it, managing a group of our client's friends with kids throughout 5 days: entertainment, music, food and fun - all was included.
The most exciting part was visiting the garden party at the villa of the legendary  founder and general manager Claude Nobbs, who organised the first festival back in 1967!!

The villa is located in the heart of the Swiss Apls with the wild nature background. Meet the ideal setting for Chaika Events future parties (as agreed with the Villa managers)


 With the gift from the sponsor, who contributed to the 38th Jazz festival

 Ideal setting for high profile pool parties


Meet the Jazz elephant!
