The story
Caprices Festival is a 4-day house, techno, melodic festival at Crans-Montana, Switzerland. The April 2027 edition runs 9–12 Apr 2027. It draws around 25,000 people.
Announced so far: Boris Brejcha, Dixon, Peggy Gou and Solomun. Expect stages split between House, Techno and Melodic. The line-up is spread across the 4 festival days, so a full-weekend ticket is the only way to catch every name.
At around 25,000 attendees it sits in the mid-to-large bracket — big stages and big production, but still walkable end to end. Crans-Montana is the base for the trip: it is where the affordable beds, the late trains and the after-parties are, and where prices climb fastest as the dates approach.
Caprices Festival keeps the same calendar slot each year: April 2027 for this edition, opening on a Friday and closing on a Monday. It falls in spring, ahead of the summer festival rush, which usually keeps travel cheaper than the July and August dates. That slot matters for the budget — flights and rooms in Crans-Montana are priced for the festival weekend, not the week around it, so shifting your arrival by a day often saves more than any ticket tier does.

- 1Book the ticket first: tiers at Caprices Festival are sold in waves and the cheapest wave is gone long before the line-up is complete.
- 2Then price the travel from Paris — Cinderella compares train, bus, car and flight for the same dates, and the cheapest option is not always the obvious one.
- 3Reserve 5 nights rather than 4: the last night of a festival almost always ends after the last train home.
- 4If you fly into GVA, check the transfer time to Crans-Montana before booking the earliest departure — the airport bus is usually the cheapest leg of the whole trip.
- 5Follow Caprices Festival on Cinderella to be emailed when a ticket price drops or a new tier opens.

Travel tips from Paris
- Fly into GVA, the closest airport to the site.
- Rail arrivals come through Sierre; shuttles usually run from there.
- Book a bed in Crans-Montana early — rooms around a festival sell out before the last ticket tier does.
