Our event tips

for Malbun and Liechtenstein


Donkey festival in Malbun

At the beginning of August, donkeys, but also llamas and alpacas compete against each other in Malbun. The challenge is to master an obstacle course – but it is often not so easy for the companions to guide the unconventional animals. It's a lot of fun for the spectators!

FL1.LIFE Festival in Schaan

For two sizzling summer days and warm summer nights, Schaan is transformed into a hub of music, art and culture. Every July the event centre simply known as the 'SAL' plays host to the Liechtenstein Festival. With concerts and performances on the large stage, the small stage and out in the courtyard, there is always plenty to see and do for the young and young-at-heart audience. Each festival is headlined by one or two international stars, with famous names such as Seal and Sunrise Avenue gracing the stage in recent years.

Cattle drive

When summer comes to an end, it's alpine descent time in Liechtenstein. The "Alpabfahrt" (alpine cattle drive) is a spectacle in itself: the cows with their cowbells draw attention to their hike from Alp Pradamee to Malbun and via Triesenberg to Vaduz, for example, and arrive there decorated with flowers.


Bird of prey show in Malbun

Visitors will be amazed from mid-May to mid-October at the bird of prey shows at the Galina falconry in Malbun. The 45-minute shows take place at 2:00 pm on Wednesday, Saturday and Sunday. From June you can book private eagle or hawk adventure hikes every day.

Malbuner Summer-Chilbi

At the end of July young and old meet up at the Chilbi in Malbun. The Cow Lottery is legendary: Visitors can bet on which of the marked fields the cows do their business. Big and small guests have a lot of fun here.

Fürstenfest in Vaduz in Liechtenstein

Liechtenstein national holiday

The Liechtenstein national holiday on August 15 opens on the castle meadow in Vaduz and is then celebrated with an aperitif in the castle garden. This is the only day on which the castle garden is open to the public (admission ticket required). In the afternoon the big folk festival begins in the town of Vaduz and in the evening a big fireworks display delights the guests.

Vaduz Classic

Every year, Vaduz Classic brings world stars, renowned orchestras and internationally known artists from the region live to the large open-air stage in the centre of Vaduz. The still young festival has already established itself as a fixed point in the cultural calendar of Liechtenstein and the region.

Funken

"Funkensonntag" (literally "Bonfire Sunday") is celebrated throughout Liechtenstein on the Sunday after Ash Wednesday by lighting a large bonfire. The custom can be traced back to the tradition of driving away the winter. An effigy of a witch, known as the "Funkenhexe" ("Bonfire Witch"), is filled with fireworks and placed on top of the bonfire as a symbol of winter. As soon as this effigy explodes, winter is said to be over.


Waterslide Contest

Anyone who comes to the waterslide contest in Malbun will have a lot of fun: With skis and snowboards, the particularly brave will glide across a pool of water, fresh and lively. Those who are also creatively costumed are guaranteed the loudest applause from the audience. And if you don't want to get involved in this experiment, you're sure to have plenty to see, marvel at and laugh about on the day.
