A vibrant event city
Concerts, trade fairs, comedy shows, and more
The event year kicks off energetically with the Sombr concert on February 20, 2026, in Halle 622 – an evening full of pop and rock elements that promises a spectacular start to Zurich's spring event season. Shortly afterwards, several major shows will take place at the Hallenstadion, including internationally acclaimed artist ROSALÍA, who will thrill Zurich with her LUX TOUR 2026 on March 22, 2026. Another highlight will follow in April: Tame Impala will bring psychedelic sounds and impressive light shows to the stage of the Hallenstadion – a concert that will appeal to music lovers of all ages.
Comedy fans will also get their money's worth in 2026. With Serdar Karibik and his show Mein Dschungel on May 8, 2026, and the popular Swiss character Mensch Läppli, who will perform at the Volkshaus on April 22, 2026, Zurich offers humorous evenings that appeal to both younger visitors and long-time comedy fans. In addition, the dance and music show Irish Celtic – Spirit of Ireland on April 17, 2026, in the nearby Halle 622 will provide a spectacular cultural event full of rhythm and Irish spirit.
For business travelers and trade fair visitors, Zurich remains one of the most important trade fair locations in the country. Particularly noteworthy is CannaTrade 2026, which will take place on May 31, 2026, in Hall 622 – an international trade fair that attracts large audiences every year and combines topics such as innovation, sustainability, and lifestyle. Thanks to its close location to Messe Zürich and the event halls, the Hotel Sternen Oerlikon is ideal for visitors who appreciate comfort and short distances.
Families and leisure visitors also benefit from the city's diverse program. Seasonal events, markets, outdoor activities, and cultural programs take place throughout the year. Many events in the city center or by the lake are easily accessible thanks to Oerlikon's excellent transport links, perfect for a weekend or short break full of variety.
The location of the Hotel Sternen Oerlikon makes all these experiences particularly convenient. Guests can reach the most important venues within a few minutes without having to search for parking or walk long distances. Whether it's a concert evening, comedy show, trade fair day, or spontaneous outing, Zurich's event world is right on the hotel's doorstep. This makes every stay a perfect combination of comfort, culture, and urban experience.
