Expat-Expo

Whether you're a recent arrival or a long-time resident, you'll find plenty to help you find your feet and get the most out of life in Switzerland at this Basel fair. From international schools to English-speaking lawyers, as well as financial experts, arts groups and sports clubs, it's a one-stop shop for expat products and services. The event will also include a host of prize draws, food and drink – including whisky tastings – bagpipe music and a free bouncy castle for children, among other attractions. Expat-Expo runs regular fairs in other Swiss cities with dates in Zurich (September 23) and Geneva (November 4) also coming up this year. Admission to all the fairs is free.
