The basics
Switzerland's flagship dance festival in the Alps
The festival
Like Sbtrkt, the good people at Caprices absolutely loathe vowels, which is why they've been hosting MDRNTY in their snowy Alpen retreat for the last nine years. That's nothing to do with cereal by the way, although we can all agree that Alpen is absolutely lovely. With a host of contemporary DJs perfroming in a transparent tent (so you can see the snow), they have won the Swiss Nightlife award twice since 2012. And those Swiss know a thing or two about nightlife. Ever gone for a rave up with the guys from Lindt? Well, let's just say it's pretty intense.
With sexy festival areas including Routes D'Acces (that might just be a road) Navettes Caprices (possibly a shuttle bus route) and Funiculaire (a funicular), Caprices promises to be a sexy weekend of sexy sexy dance action. Mmm, chocolatey
Our tip
A popular term of affection in French is "mon petit chou-fleur", which translates directly to "my little cauliflower". Say this in broken Francais and the French will find you adorable.
