Facts and figures

The figures for Zug2026 command respect, the organization of such an event is a feat of strength. We are aware of this. But as the canton of Zug recently showed with the ESAF Zug: Everyone is working together here, pulling in the same direction. That is why we are convinced that we can not only implement this event professionally and sustainably, we also believe that we can manifest the topic of inclusion in Zug. Because Zug has and shows heart.
