New Year's Eve in St. Moritz 2026/2027: Celebrations & Program

Welcome to the New Year's Eve 2026/2027 in St. Moritz

New Year's Eve and New Year 2026/2027 in St. Moritz are not a single mass party on one square. They are a cluster of polished hotel galas, mountain nights and lakeside walks. On 31 December 2026 and 1 January 2027 the focus is Via Maistra, the frozen shore of Lake St. Moritz (Lej da San Murezzan) and houses such as the Carlton, Suvretta House, GRACE La Margna and Kempinski. The municipality bans private fireworks. The turn of the year is defined by lights, champagne, live music and views across the Engadin peaks rather than a public pyrotechnic show.

Highlights & Attractions at New Year's Eve in St. Moritz

• Five-star gala dinners and after-parties along Via Maistra and Via Serlas
• White Silvester on 31 December 2026 at the White Marmot, 2,486 m on Corviglia
• New Year's Eve above the valley on Muottas Muragl and private nights at Chesa Marguns
• Midnight countdown and afterparty at bars such as N/5 – THE BAR at GRACE La Margna
• An illuminated village and frozen-lake promenade without private fireworks
• Skiing and alpine dining on Corviglia and Corvatsch before and after midnight
• Later in the season: White Turf horse racing on the frozen lake in February 2027

Program & Schedule: What to Expect in 2026/2027

31 December 2026 often starts on the slopes or in a spa. From around 19:00 most galas open with an aperitif, then a multi-course dinner and live music. At the Carlton Hotel the 2026/2027 Bohemian evening runs from 19:00 on the Bel Etage, with a five-course dinner in the Empire Ballroom from 19:30 and a party from 23:00 with DJ Tanja La Croix. GRACE La Margna pairs dinner with a midnight toast at N/5 – THE BAR. Suvretta House, Balthazar, Hotel Steffani, Salastrains and other venues run their own themed nights, from black-tie dining to club formats.

On the mountain, White Silvester at the White Marmot on Corviglia is the standout listing for 31 December 2026; Muottas Muragl also stages a New Year's Eve programme. There is no official municipal fireworks display. 1 January is typically quieter: lake walks, skiing and any cultural dates published closer to the holiday.

Visitor Tips: Travel & Accommodation in St. Moritz

• Arrive by Rhaetian Railway to St. Moritz via Chur and Samedan; the station is walkable to the village. By car use the Julier or Albula routes with winter tyres and extra time. The nearest airfield is Samedan.
• Late December is cold, often sunny alpine weather below freezing. Pack formal or black-tie outfits for galas, plus insulated boots, layers and gloves for the lake and mountain.
• Rooms at Kulm, Badrutt’s Palace, Carlton, Suvretta House, Kempinski and smaller luxury hotels book out for New Year. Reserve early and check packages that include dinner.
• Private fireworks are banned in the municipality. Plan the countdown at a reserved hotel, bar or mountain terrace rather than expecting a public lakeside show.
• Check ski passes, lift hours and event pages on stmoritz.com and mountains.ch; White Silvester and Muottas Muragl usually need a separate booking plus a mountain ride.
