Visiting Lugano & Ticino

Only here for one Sunday?

A holiday, work stay, or few weeks in Ticino can still leave room for meaningful connection. This guide is written for an English-speaking visitor who may have just one Sunday in Lugano.

Next service: Sunday 11 October 2026 at 18:00 · also 8 November

Come for one visit, without a commitment.

Travelling with others

A short visit can be a family visit.

The essentials should work for adults, children, and teens.

Parents need to know whether children stay with them or join a supervised activity, what age ranges apply, who is responsible, and how to find accessible facilities. Children of every age are warmly welcome. The more the merrier! Parents and carers remain responsible for their children during the service.

For a short stay

Useful questions, even for one day.

Can I visit only once?

Of course. Visitors are very welcome, even for a single Sunday. There is nothing to sign up for.

Is there a service every Sunday?

Not yet. English services are currently announced for Sunday 11 October 2026, Sunday 8 November 2026, at 18:00. The visit page always shows the latest dates.

Is it the only English-language church in Lugano?

No, and we are glad there are others. This page lists the currently announced English service dates in Breganzona, Lugano.

What if I want to explore faith while travelling?

The Explore Faith and Bible Stories pages offer a starting point without suggesting a local course is running.
