Sommerabend im Reitplatz — Open-Air-Kino in Château-d’Œx

The riding hall of Château-d’Œx pulsed with hooves and cinema.

On Saturday 5 July, Eden Cinema’s Open Air event took over this unique setting, nestled in the heart of the Pays-d’Enhaut. The evening opened with a musical equestrian performance, where horses traced silent arabesques in harmony with riders and melody. A captivating choreography, blending animal grace and human finesse.

As night fell, all eyes turned to the screen. Bartabas’ film, The Traveling Horses, took the audience on a poetic journey, carried by the rhythm of manes in the wind and age-old companionship. A powerful tribute to the bond between horse and human, between art and freedom.

An unforgettable evening where live performance met cinema, with feet in the sawdust and dreams among the stars. Moments like these are what make the Vaud Alps so magical — heartfelt, imaginative, and deeply alive.
