Cultural Partner

A prestigious support for the Abyss Festival

The HR Giger Museum once again honors us with its support.

This year again, holders of an Abyss Festival wristband can enjoy a preferential entry rate from June 27 to 29: 8 CHF instead of 12.50 CHF.

The perfect opportunity to (re)discover the Château St-Germain de Gruyères, an extraordinary setting for the most remarkable works of the Master.

Support Us

The Abyss Festival is a completely independent event, driven by passionate enthusiasts with the sole desire to share their love for rock and metal.

Revenue from bars and food stands, along with the incredible commitment of our loyal volunteers, helps us cover part of the significant budget for an event like this. But it is not enough, especially as we receive little financial support from public institutions.

Since the beginning of this decibel adventure, we have been fortunate to count on the invaluable support of many individuals and companies, happy to associate their name and image with a unifying event.

Feel free to contact us for any support.
