Fête de l'Escalade

L'Escalade, or Fête de l'Escalade (from escalade, the act of scaling defensive walls) is an annual festival held in December in Geneva, Switzerland, celebrating the defeat of the surprise attack by troops sent by Charles Emmanuel I, Duke of Savoy during the night of 11–12 December 1602. The celebrations and other commemorative activities are usually held on 12 December or the closest weekend.Other traditions include mulled wine, a large serving of soup, and children in Halloween-like costumes singing Escalade songs for money. It is also common for children in school to prepare vegetable soup, which is served to parents and families that night. There is also a parade on Sunday evening.
