Swiss National Day 2024
August 3 , 17:30 - 20:30
Let’s celebrate the Swiss National Day together!
The 1st of August, our Swiss National Day, is approaching! The Swiss Society of the Kansai cordially invites you and your guests to attend the celebration party at the Kobe Club. In order to avoid the summer heat the event will be held indoor in the Ballroom of the Kobe Club.
Please note that the Kobe Club will undergo a major reconstruction at the end of this year and will be closed for 2 years. This may be the last opportunity to visit the ‘old’ Kobe Club, before the re-opening of the new Kobe Club in early 2027!
Our program:
17:30 Reception and Apéro — wine generously offered by the Embassy of Switzerland
18:00 Official Program
+ Opening address by Herbert Bucher President of the Swiss Society of the Kansai
+ Recorded speech by the Swiss President Viola Amherd, followed by the Swiss and Japanese National Anthems
+ Official speech and Kampai by the official Swiss representative
18:30 Sit-down dinner prepared by the Chef of the Kobe Club with free-flowing drinks — wine, beer, soft drinks, coffee, and tea
19:30 Entertainment and Tombola — Each participant gets a free tombola ticket at the entrance. This might be your lucky day
Please use public transportation if you plan to drink alcohol!
