Overdress! Costume Party – Opera House Zürich 2024

Over 1600 party guests celebrated throughout the night – fancifully dressed in imaginative costumes – at the second edition of the “Overdress!” costume party at the Zürich Opera House. They flooded the theatrical space with incredibly creative attire, thoroughly enjoying the fantastic atmosphere.

Four Swiss bands performed live as musical acts, providing top-notch live entertainment: the Eastern Swiss solo artist and Swiss Music Award winner Crimer, the Bernese Balkan brass band Traktorkestar, the Zuürich cover band Maxin, and the disco-punk band the Dirty Slips.

On the three dance floors: the main stage, the Spiegelsaal, and the Bernhardtheater, the DJs Louis de Fumer, Cup of Jazz, and Chan & Dan energized the audience, creating an exuberant atmosphere.

The Baur au Lac, Bar Sacchi, and Turicum Gin served an abundance of drinks at the bars, while the Momo Tenz and Tiny Fish restaurants set up food corners, with Gasparini ice cream parlour providing sweet refreshments in between.

This fun and colorful costume party will only occur once more, on Saturday, 15th March 2025.
