Lots going on this weekend in the Nyon area

The main event of course is Caribana down by the lake at Crans. Tickets are still available for tonight. The line up on the main stage is Oi va Voi at 19:45 Micky Green at 21:45, Faithless at 24:00. Over at the Scene du Lac is Yodelice at 20:45 and the Asterix Galaxy tour at 23:00. On the new small stage (for a quieter type of accoustic music) Lei Lu is due to perform at 19:15 followed by Thomas Dybdahl at 21:45.

Caribana is one of the main music festivals to start the summer season here in Vaud and even if you are not sure who all the perfomers are, it's worth going along to check out the bands, have dinner from the many international food stands, browse the stalls and soak up the atmosphere. Also on Saturday and Sunday its the Interculturelle weekend (see previous post) with a pot luck supper and its also Biodiversity day, there is a description on the Nyon website about the activities around this day.
