Things to do in Zurich this May that are worth your time ⤵️
May is honestly one of the best months to be in Zürich ✨
The city finally starts feeling lighter again, terraces fill up, people stay outside longer, and there’s suddenly a lot more happening than just work and weekend routines.
So if you’re looking for things that are actually worth adding to your calendar this month, here are 5 experiences in Zürich I’d genuinely recommend:
✨ Zürich Tanzt (7–10 May)
For a few days, the whole city turns into one big dance floor, from performances to workshops and social dancing across Zürich
✨ Die vergessene Legende von Zürich (until 24 May)
A surprisingly atmospheric 360° immersive experience inside the church in Enge. One of the more unexpected things I’ve done recently
✨ Remise Rosa Night Market (23 May)
Vintage finds, local creatives, food, music, and that slightly chaotic-but-fun night market energy Zürich actually does very well .rosa
✨ Kreislauf 345 (30–31 May)
Probably one of the nicest weekends to wander around Zürich. Open studios, local shops, creative spaces, cafés, perfect if you enjoy discovering the city slowly
✨ Becoming Marilyn (until 28 June)
An immersive exhibition exploring the myth, beauty, and complexity behind Marilyn Monroe. More reflective and visually interesting than I expected
Saving this for later might genuinely improve your May plans ✨
And if you enjoy discovering thoughtful experiences, hidden gems, and ways to enjoy life a little more intentionally in Zürich and Switzerland, you’ll probably like it here
