Switzerland celebrates its National Day in Marrakech for the first time

It was in the very heart of the Ochre City that the Swiss National Day was celebrated… And a little early! Traditionally held on 1 August, the festivities took place this year on 24 July at the initiative of the Honorary Consulate of Switzerland in Marrakech. A first that brought together more than 130 guests in the refreshing and peaceful setting of the “Jardins de la Medina”. Swiss and international operators, Moroccan officials and representatives of foreign consular corps all gathered to celebrate Switzerland, and Morocco! In their speeches, Pierre-Yves Morier, in charge of running the Embassy in Rabat, and Sami Zerelli, Honorary Consul of Switzerland in Marrakech, reiterated their commitment to serving bilateral relations and supporting Morocco in its regionalisation process. An exceptional event worthy of Moroccan-Swiss friendship!
