Basel traditionally kicks off its Swiss National Day celebrations as early as July 31 with a city festival on the Rhine.

On July 31, Basel celebrates the Swiss National Day with a big fireworks display on the Rhine. From 5 p.m. to 2 a.m., around 100 stalls on the two banks of the Rhine will ensure an atmospheric city festival. The festival area stretches along the Kleinbasel bank of the Rhine from Johanniterbrücke to Wettsteinbrücke and in Grossbasel from Johanniterbrücke to Mittlere Brücke and Marktplatz. The fireworks are set off from two ships. The best place to admire it is from the Kleinbasel bank of the Rhine between Johanniterbrücke and Wettsteinbrücke.
