Zermatt is one of the more exclusive destinations in Switzerland - and this is also noticeable when attending Zermatt Unplugged. The costs for travel, accommodation, tickets and food quickly add up. Those who treat themselves to a musical treat in front of the panorama of the Matterhorn often have to dig deep into their pockets.
A hotel room in Zermatt is rarely a bargain, and concert tickets also come at a price. Then there's the food, drinks at the bar and, last but not least, the journey to the car-free mountain village. So it's hardly surprising that some visitors budget up to CHF 2,000 for a long weekend - true to the motto: "You can't treat yourself to anything else".
