The music favours collective interaction and conversation, alternating lyrical themes and spirited solos. Performers include Louis Matute (guitar), Zacharie Ksyk (trumpet), Léon Phal (saxophone), Andrew Audiger (piano), Nathan Vandenbulcke (drums) and Virgile Rosselet (double bass).

For this project they invited artist Lyna Azwaw to stage an edition inspired by documents and publications found in archives. The presentation includes performances and contributions by Js Donny, Rosalie Dubois and Leandro Russo.

Opening: Thursday 9 July, 20:00 – 22:00

Saturday 18 July, 09:30

Stroll into a storytelling journey inspired by “The Agglomerates.” Listen to lively tales that blend movement and poetry, then join a hands-on workshop to draw and create your own marks from the story. Feel the rhythm of spoken words, the scratch of pencils, and bright colors coming to life. The session invites children to slow down, imagine, move with the story, and make simple artworks that keep memory of the adventure.

Kids ages 5 and up.

15 – 19 July

Step into soft tents filled with gentle sounds and bright colors. Little ones touch, listen, and play through sensory corners, simple creative workshops, short musical stories, and tiny circus games. Families explore textures, make easy crafts, hear short tales, and move with friendly rhythms. Activities are paced for toddlers, encouraging curiosity, calm discovery, and shared smiles in a cozy, playful space.

In French. Kids ages 0–4.

Saturday 18 July, 14:00

This workshop uses techniques from Theatre of the Oppressed to examine systemic oppression, gendered dynamics and power relations in the performing arts. Through physical exercises and situational improvisations contributed by participants, the session explores how power circulates on and off stage and offers practical tools to reclaim agency and transform everyday interactions. The workshop follows a chosen-mix policy and excludes cisgender heterosexual men to foster a safer, more expressive space.

Celebrating Geneva’s vibrant heartbeat and the stories shaping culture today

Awarded the Prix de la Fondation pour Genève in recognition of a lifetime dedicated to the city, Ivan Pictet embodies Geneva's civic spirit. Banker, philanthropist, and longtime champion of International Geneva, his remarkable journey has been shaped by curiosity, humility, and a commitment to bringing people together.
The office is not what you expect. Tucked in the attic of an old building in Eaux-Vives, it is a little haven of plants, natural light, and rustic beams. This is where Lara Mai Vo Van, her co-founder Pascale Clemann, and their small team spend most of the year building the Geneva Street Food Festival, which for eleven days each summer takes over the Plaine de Plainpalais and draws over a hundred thousand people together over food.
