Around 160 athletes will meet on Sunday, June 29, 2025 in the five sawdust rings in the Gründenmoos stadium in St.Gallen.

The elite of wrestling in north-eastern Switzerland meet at the gates of the city of St.Gallen, nestled in the magnificent landscape between Alpstein and Lake Constance, for the big test of strength before the "Eidgenössisches" in Glarus. 45 years after the 1980 Swiss Wrestling and Alpine Festival was held on the St.Gallen Kreuzbleiche, the Gründenmoos stadium, located directly next to the home stadium of FC St.Gallen, offers the perfect infrastructure for the North-East Swiss Wrestling Festival. The top local wrestlers around Damian Ott, Werner Schlegel, Samuel Giger, Armon Orlik, Domenic Schneider and Roger Rychen will meet a total of eight "bad boys" from the other Swiss federations. The 160 NOS wrestlers will do their utmost to ensure that the winner of the festival comes from their own ranks. The attractive prize temple with numerous live prizes will play its part in motivating the wrestlers.

The wrestling arena with five wrestling rings is located on the grounds of the Gründenmoos stadium, where the Nations Cup of the CSIO St.Gallen, one of the most highly endowed equestrian events in Switzerland, takes place every year. The existing stadium grandstand will be supplemented by mobile stands, so that all fans of wrestling will have the best view of the exciting duels in the sawdust. The marquees with their food and drink offerings with plenty of local color are located right next to the wrestling arena and the distances to the lunch banquet and the gift temple are also short.

The Olma city of St.Gallen is looking forward to this wrestling highlight. The organizing committee and the Schwingerverband St.Gallen und Umgebung are looking forward to exciting wrestling and a large turnout of wrestling fans from all over Switzerland.
