One of the biggest open-air festivals in the country kicks off today.
Zurich OpenAir is close to the airport and traditionally marks the end of the summer music season. Covid means this is the first event for the last two years.
Tonight, on stage are Glass Animals, Arctic Monkeys and Sigrid. Later this week – Kings of Leon, Bastille, Two Door Cinema Club, Martin Garrix and David Guetta.
It’s on until Saturday and some tickets are still available – for the moment.
