40 years of Last Christmas by Wham!

Relive George Michael's stay at the Walliserhof and discover the star's favourite specialities

Exactly 40 years ago, in autumn 1984, George Michael and his crew arrived in Saas-Fee to film the video for his hit ‘Last Christmas’. The Brits caught the eye in the glacier village and had a special request or two for the team at the former Walliserhof. Now, 40 years later, we at the Walliserhof Grand-Hotel & Spa are reviving the memory and serving you a modern interpretation of the superstar's more or less well-known special requests.

From a simple cocktail to an augmented reality scavenger hunt with George Michael's virtual assistant, everything is included. Come along and discover the Walliserhof as the star and his crew experienced it.
