Entertainment in Zermatt

  1. A

    Vernissage Bar

    The ultimate après-ski antithesis, Vernissage exudes grown-up sophistication. Local artist Heinz Julen has created a theatrical space with flowing velvet drapes, film-reel chandeliers and candlelit booths. Catch an exhibition, watch a Bond movie in the decadent cinema, then practice your 007 martini pose in the lounge bar.

    Papperla Pub

    Rammed with sloshed skiers in winter, this pub blends pulsating music with lethal Jägermeister bombs and good vibes. Squeeze in, slam shots, then shuffle downstairs to Schneewittchen club (open to 4am) for more of the same. There is free wi-fi here.

  3. Hennu Stall

    Hennu is the wildest après-ski shack on Klein Matterhorn. Order a caramel vodka and take your ski boots grooving to live music on the terrace. A metre-long ‘ski’ of shots will make you cluck all the way down to Zermatt.

  4. Z’alt Hischi

    Finding this watering hole, tucked away in Zermatt’s most charming street, is a challenge best left to the sober. It’s a warm, woody affair, serving generous measures and local gossip.

  5. Igloo Bar

    Subzero sippers make for this igloo bar to guzzle glühwein amid the ice sculptures, sunbathe and stare wide-mouthed at Matterhorn. It’s on the run from Gornergrat to Riffelberg.
