Santa Clara Swiss Days

Santa Clara's Annual Swiss Days Celebration is truly a home-town celebration full of history and fun! Santa Clara celebrated its first Swiss Days in 1990 in tribute to the town's pioneer heritage in which Swiss members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints settled in Santa Clara in 1861.

Swiss days includes a 5 kilometer run/walk, pancake breakfast, and of course the Swiss Days Parade which begins at 9:30 a.m. at the LDS Chapel on Santa Clara Drive and continues to Town Hall, showcasing everything from Harley Davidson motorcycle groups to homemade floats. The festival will also include a Red Rock Car Show at Canyon View Park, in addition to continuous entertainment, dog agility demonstrations, heritage displays, pioneer craft demonstrations, family history lectures, and children's activities, and more.
