Don’t miss the return of the Crayfish Party in Geneva! Nordic kräftskiva by Lake Geneva, Nyon – September 13, 2025. Book early & save!
Crayfish Party on Lac Léman – September 13, 2025
After a few years’ break, the Nordics Club of Geneva is bringing back one of our most beloved traditions: the Crayfish Party (kräftskiva)!
Join us on Saturday, September 13, 2025, for a magical evening on the shores of Lac Léman in Nyon. This late-summer Nordic celebration combines freshly caught crayfish, lakeside sunset views, traditional songs, and plenty of laughter.
What is a Crayfish Party (Kräftskiva)?
A crayfish party, or kräftskiva, is a classic Nordic tradition celebrated in late summer. Friends gather to enjoy piles of crayfish, bread, cheese, pies, and drinks — while singing traditional witty drinking songs (Skål!). It’s festive, a little bit silly, and full of good spirit.
For many in Switzerland, this is a rare chance to experience authentic Nordic culture without leaving the country.
What to Expect in Nyon
Our 2025 event will take place right on the shores of Lake Geneva (Lac Léman), creating the perfect setting for an unforgettable evening.
You can look forward to:
Fresh crayfish from local fishermen
Traditional Nordic sides
A variety of drinks: beer, wine, and soft drinks
Singing & laughter with friends, old and new
Lakeside sunset in a relaxed and fun atmosphere
Whether you are Nordic or simply curious to experience something new, everyone is welcome!
