Step back in time to our ancestors!
The Fête des Vieux Costumes is a demonstration of folk dancing in traditional costumes, accompanied by musical entertainment and a tombola, organized every summer by the Société Champéry 1830.
This society perpetuates the cultural traditions of our ancestors who, living sparsely and almost self-sufficiently in a valley with difficult access and a rather humid climate, devoted themselves to raising livestock and exploiting the forests.
Practical information:
– This summer, the festival takes place at the Alpage de Lapisa in Champéry, where folk dances, a tombola and musical entertainment featuring the much-loved traditional group Les Bergex will follow one another.
