The Verbier Air Show is a high-altitude aerial show featuring base jumping, wingsuit, paragliding and aerobatics, on Mont-Gelé and at Médran. It takes place in Verbier on Saturday 10 April 2027, from 9 am to 6 pm.
The story
The first edition took place on 11 and 12 April 2026, in the 4 Vallées ski area. The main action was on the summit of Mont-Gelé, at 3,023 metres. The organisers presented it as a founding edition, over two days and six disciplines.
Spectators watched base jumps from the cable car station, wingsuit flights and acrobatic paragliding. The programme also included speedflying, a display on the history of paragliding and aerial dance. The Bungy Niouc troupe and the Coquino circus school completed the show.
The Soul Flyers flew wingsuits there, including Fred Fugen, triple freefly world champion, and Vincent Cotte, parachuting world champion. Maud Perrin, aerobatic paragliding world champion in 2024 and 2025, also took part. Géraldine Fasnacht, a wingsuit pioneer, was among the athletes.
Place de Médran served as the public hub. The flights were broadcast live on a giant screen. The production brought together MS Prod, Don’t Panic Labs and Visuals.
