Norah Jones, Emeli Sandé, Kodaline and Jessie J have been announced as headline acts for the 11th Zermatt Unplugged, which takes place from 10–14 April.
Irish alternative rock band Kodaline will open the acoustic music festival, which this year is also launching an “Unplugged Pass” for all visitors who do not have a concert ticket for the main concerts, and costs CHF30 per day (CHF50 per week).
In addition to access to the Taste Village and the Foyer Marquee, the Unplugged Pass includes entry to the “Newcomer” (side stages) concerts, the “Breaking Acts” (Vernissage), the “Artist in Residence” (Hotel Schönegg & Foyer Marquee), Ronnie Scott’s All Stars (Gandegghütte / Hotel Alex / Mont Cervin Palace), and the after parties (Vernissage / The Alex / Heinz Julen Shop / Ferdinand).
The Taste Village created as a festival centre for the first time in 2017 will be back in 2018 as a meeting point where visitors can listen to newcomers, fry a cervelat sausage in the tradition of authentic Switzerland, and taste all the delicacies that Taste Village partners have created.
