LILU – Light & Magic Right on Your Doorstep

14 January 2027 – 24 January 2027

Experience an enchanting evening inspired by Lucerne’s Festival of Lights (LILU), beginning with a culinary highlight on the banks of the Reuss and followed by a stroll through the beautifully illuminated Old Town.

Your evening starts at Restaurant Des Alpes, where you will be welcomed with an Aperitif. Afterwards, enjoy a carefully crafted 3-course dinner featuring fresh, regional ingredients prepared with passion and attention to detail.

Hotel Des Alpes offers a location that is second to none: directly opposite the iconic Chapel Bridge, one of the festival’s central stages. From here, you can admire many of the spectacular light installations from the very heart of the action – without long walks or crowds. Numerous LILU highlights are within easy walking distance, including the beautiful Jesuit Church, Lucerne, located just five minutes from the hotel.

Immerse yourself in a magical world of light, art, and winter charm while discovering Lucerne at its most captivating.
