About the event

On Sunday, 8 November 2026, Champagne Sunday returns to Lausanne. The first edition in March showed just how much interest there is in a personal and accessible Champagne format in French-speaking Switzerland. Around 250 guests used the two time slots to discover new producers, experience familiar houses from a different perspective and speak directly with the people who make, select and represent the Champagnes.

This is the atmosphere we want to continue with the second edition.

For me, Champagne is first and foremost wine. It speaks of origin, grape varieties, soils, craftsmanship and the decisions made by the people who produce it. Its diversity becomes particularly clear when different cuvées are tasted side by side and a glass becomes the starting point for a genuine exchange.

That is what Champagne Sunday Lausanne stands for.

Time slots

Champagne Sunday Lausanne will once again take place in two separate time slots:

8 November 2026

11:00–14:00

15:00–18:00

The limited number of guests ensures enough space for tastings and personal conversations at each table.

The Lausanne edition is being developed together with Dustin Salvisberg. Dustin lives with his family in French-speaking Switzerland and has been deeply engaged with Champagne for many years. As a passionate aficionado, he knows not only the diversity of the region, but also many of its producers and their individual styles. For some time now, he has also been introducing selected Champagne producers to the Swiss market and helping their cuvées reach a new audience. Dustin also knows how to create and organise high-quality events with a strong sense of detail and hospitality. He brings this experience from his professional role at Audemars Piguet. Peter Jauch complements Dustin Salvisberg's local roots with his own network in Champagne, his experience as an author and host, and his conviction that Champagne is best understood when different cuvées and the people behind them can be experienced in person. Together, Dustin Salvisberg and Peter Jauch are creating a Lausanne edition that is firmly rooted in French-speaking Switzerland while placing the diversity of Champagne at its centre.

The venue

Lausanne Palace

Guests move freely between the tables and shape their visit according to their own interests. Renowned houses meet independent growers, classic blends sit alongside single-vineyard Champagnes, and familiar grape varieties are joined by lesser-known expressions of the region.

How Champagne Sunday works

Champagne Sunday is designed for people who love Champagne, want to learn more about it or are keen to discover new producers.

No prior knowledge is required. Every guest decides how deeply they would like to explore. Some may wish to compare a wide range of styles, while others may focus on individual producers or enjoy longer conversations about specific grape varieties, origins and ageing methods.

Both approaches are part of Champagne Sunday.
