The Literary Autumn Gstaad is a festival for contemporary literature in the Saanenland.
Authors from Switzerland as well as from the German-speaking area present their current works and engage in conversation with the audience.

Readings, discussions, and special literary formats invite attendees to discover new voices and experience literature in a personal atmosphere. The events take place at various locations in Gstaad and the region.

Against the impressive mountain backdrop, personal encounters with literature, new discoveries, and stimulating discussions arise. The Literary Autumn Gstaad combines literary quality with a family-like atmosphere and makes the Saanenland a meeting point for literature enthusiasts every autumn.

Tickets for the individual readings can only be booked directly through the organizer's website: www.literarischerherbst.ch
