No idea what to do today?
Here's a list of upcoming events for the Interlaken and Brienz region.
5th and the 26th – Schloss Interlaken: Middle Ages dinner with theatre performance. Not your everyday supper either: food is served on wooden boards, drinks in earthenware mugs and you only get a spoon. Bring your own knife if you want, but forks are not allowed! Sign up ahead of time at: http://www.mittelalteressen-interlaken.ch/termine.htm or at the Tell Spiel in Interlaken. The evening costs CHF 98.- per person, but it is certainly a dinner you will never forget!
