Don’t Miss One Of The Biggest Mountain Festivals In Utah This Year, Midway Swiss Days
Midway is a small Utah town that’s home to around 5,400 people – many of whom are of Swiss heritage. Every year, the town hosts its Swiss Days celebration, and it’s one of the Beehive State’s largest mountain festivals.
The little town of Midway is surrounded by mountains on Utah's Wasatch Back. The Swiss immigrants who settled in the area in the 1860s and 1870s may have missed their European homes, but they brought their culture and traditions with them.
Head to the gazebo at Town Square for some great outdoor entertainment. Enjoy local talent that includes singing, dancing, and musical performances all throughout both days of the festival.
You won't want to miss the annual production of the William Tell Play on the Town Hall Stage. Other performances at this venue include Swiss Bells, Swiss Children's Chorus, and more.
On Saturday morning, wake up early and head to the chuckwagon breakfast at 7 a.m.. Cheer on the runners (or participate yourself) in the 10k and kid's race.
