ICE MAGIC Interlaken

The ICE MAGIC will not be held in 2025

The «Verein Chance Interlaken +» (VCI+), formerly the «Verein Chance Winter» (VCW), was reorganised thanks to all partners and reconstituted in July 2023. The association will be dissolved on 31.12.2024 and its tasks will be transferred to the Tourism Development Projects working group of the Interlaken Tourism Organisation «Tourismus-Organisaion Interlaken» (TOI). The «Ice Magic» project has not yet been able to find a private sponsor. However, the Höhematte is set to become a special experience and meeting place again next winter. As part of the sensitisation process, TOI is planning to voluntarily implement a winter project for guests and locals. More information on this will follow at a later date.

Status: 23 September 2024

Information about the continuation of ICE MAGIC

It becomes apparent that this winter, as already announced, an innovative alternative will be created on the Höhematte. From Saturday, 13 January to Sunday, 3 March 2024, the Winterlaken Labyrinth of the Tourismus-Organisation Interlaken and partners will enchant you on the Höhematte. Look forward to a unique winter experience - as big as a football field.

According to the Communal Council of Interlaken, a revision of the concept and a radical cost reduction is required to ensure the financial viability of the ICE MAGIC in the medium term. There is a lack of financial resources for the realisation of the ICE MAGIC within the known framework. It needs a change - innovation. In this case, innovation can mean an adapted continuation of the event. At the moment, however, the indications are that an alternative innovation will take place.

New ideas and innovative alternatives are being examined. Locals and guests should be able to look forward to an illuminated and lively Interlaken in the coming winter.
