the week
Dance by night,
ski by day.
Shapes brings a week of music to Leysin. We're opening a house in the middle of it — Vermont Hub, five minutes from the slopes, with the Dents du Midi in every window.
Come for the sets, stay for the people. Ski in the morning, cook together at sundown, go out dancing, and come back to a fire and a family. It's the same thing we've done in the jungle and on the coast for ten years, now with snow.
-
01
Dance
Shapes runs Monday to Sunday across Leysin's venues, with late nights at The Underbelly and a sunset party at 2,200 m to close it.
-
02
Mountain
Ski, snowshoe, ride the gondola for the view, or soak in the thermal baths down the valley. Mont Blanc and Lake Geneva on the horizon.
-
03
Home
A shared kitchen, a salon facing the peaks, the sauna, and the long table. The heart of the week, between the parties.
No agenda, just invitations
Every day is yours. Join the crew for a run, a cook, a set or a sauna, or don't. Everything is optional, and everyone is family.

Questions
Is the festival pass included?
No. The room price covers your stay at Vermont Hub. Shapes passes, ski passes and the sunset party are booked directly on shapesfestival.ch.
Can I come for just part of the week?
Heart Shapes is a full-week stay, Monday 15 to Monday 22 March. The house arrives together and becomes a family over the week. Early check-in and late check-out are available on request.
What is the Decentralized Autonomous Kitchen?
A shared way of cooking. For CHF 25 per person per day we stock the kitchen with all the ingredients and recipes, and anyone can take a turn. Meals are shared around the big table, with no rota and no pressure.
Can I bring a partner or share a room?
Yes. A second guest adds CHF 385 for the week, kitchen included. Just choose 2 guests in the form.
I don't ski. Is it still for me?
Absolutely. The festival pass includes the non-ski gondola, and between the sauna, the thermal baths, the salon and the dance floor there's plenty to do without skis.
Do I need to know someone in Project Heart?
No, but tell us a little about yourself in the form. The house is small, and we like to know who's coming home.
