Artists, investors, technologists, crypto companies and the public will be able to immerse themselves in this intriguing new world through a series of events including NFT awards, NFT auctions, conferences, VR experiences and much more.

‘NFT and Metaverse technologies offer revolutionary prospects for the music industry and the arts in general. With Caprices we have always sought to be at the heart of novelty, and being among the first to offer an artistic event combining real and virtual life excites us a lot’ – Maxime Léonard (founder and artistic director)
Caprices is globally renowned for its unique glass Modernity Stage, set at the top of the Swiss Alps in the picturesque ski resort of Crans-Montana. From the moment of stepping into the bubble lift to head up the mountain, guests become engulfed with excitement. The stand alone greenhouse-like structure sits 2,200m above sea level offering panoramic views of the crystalline skies and snow-capped mountain vista whilst partying amidst the crisp mountain air of the Swiss Alps.
The two night stages (the Forest Stage and Signal Stage) will be hosted by international partners Movement Torino, Yoyaku Records, Techno V, Return by Solid AM and B4 Zanzibar. The Forest Stage offers guests a more intimate party space, situated at the base of the bubble lift which takes you to the top of the mountain, whilst the Signal Stage offers a much larger, vast warehouse style space ideal for those heavier night time sounds.
For its anticipated winter return Caprices Festival once again proves to push the boundaries of what a destination festival can offer, with arguably its biggest year to date.
