Stars on the Jungfraujoch

Jungfraujoch – Top of Europe offers exclusive experiences in the premium destination of Switzerland. With this in mind, Jungfrau Railways regularly organises events with the biggest stars from the worlds of sport, culture and entertainment – on the Jungfraujoch, of course. It started with a football match between the host countries Switzerland and Austria in 2007 as a highlight of the “One year to go” celebrations before the 2008 European football championships. In the following years, cricket stars from India and Great Britain and boxing’s Klitschko brothers visited the Jungfraujoch. Other highlights were the tennis match between skiing ace Lindsey Vonn and Roger Federer, basketball star Tony Parker with a whole team and the exceptional talent Lang Lang on the piano.

Did you know that…
in 2015, wrestling king Kilian Wenger spontaneously challenged Jamaican sprinter star Asafa Powell to an arm-wrestling match – and beat him in just under 15 seconds?
