I had the pleasure of having lunch last week with PR Maven, Gayle Conran<\/a>, and Cindy Maghenzani, head of communications for Switzerland’s Lake Geneva Region<\/a>. They reminded me that next summer, from July 26 to August 11, 2019, the Fête des Vignerons<\/a> or Winegrower’s Festival returns to the glorious lakeside town of Vevey, located between Lausanne and Montreux. Why is this significant? Because the event only occurs once every 20 years! Join singers, dancers, wine experts, and loads of other performers for the extravaganza. It would be wise to book rooms now to ensure you have a place to stay. Grand Hotel du Lac, the property Lisa and I stayed on our last visit is a great choice, especially since it’s celebrating its 150th birthday, as Everett Potter reports in his latest column for Forbes<\/a>. While in Vevey, visit the relatively new Chaplin’s World<\/a>, where Charlie Chaplin spent his last years, and the majestic Chillon Castle<\/a>, always a must-see sight when I’m in the area. <\/p>\n <\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Book Rooms Now For Next Summer's F\u00c3\u00aate des Vignerons in Vevey, Switzerland - Active Travels<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"noindex, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Book Rooms Now For Next Summer's F\u00c3\u00aate des Vignerons in Vevey, Switzerland - Active Travels\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"I had the pleasure of having lunch last week with PR Maven, Gayle Conran, and Cindy Maghenzani, head of communications for Switzerland’s Lake Geneva Region.
