Leysin Welcomes the World of Hospitality

SHMS Leysin opened its doors on Sunday the 6th of May and welcomed more than 300 guests to the ‘World of Hospitality.’ The event is the culmination of months of work by students studying event management who organise the day as a part of their studies.

Guests from the hospitality industry and local region joined in the fun, exploring the campus, enjoying the various activities, food and entertainment. After a traditional Hawaiian welcome, the international buffet stretched across four continents from Asia to Africa, the US and Europe and the Brazilian BBQ was a tasty treat. Chocolate tasting, sugar-work, high-tea service, cocktail tasting, a Korean noodle bar and risotto workshop kept guests entertained for a large part of the afternoon. Smaller guests were not forgotten and the face-painting and kids corner were a real hit.

A special SHMS 20th anniversary edition of the World of Hospitality will be held in December and we can’t wait!
