Experience an illuminated nighttime parcours across the Salève summit, where trees, slopes and esplanades become stages under the stars. Darkness, lanterns and art transform the mountain into a sequence of discoveries, with circus, dance, theatre, music, visual installations and performances by over 40 artists. The route unfolds as a promenading journey, an ascent where light fades and imagination grows, inviting families and curious walkers to wander, encounter unexpected moments and shape their evening step by step.
Led by accordionist Camille Tissot, Inscape offers an immersion in modern jazz shaped by diverse influences from Bobby McFerrin to Alt-J and Paname Panic. Tissot’s original compositions bring the accordion to the foreground, blending electric textures and delicate timbres. Joined by Solal Laval (drums), Ethan Borlet-Hote (bass) and Léonard Probst (keyboards), the quartet crafts an intimate, richly textured sound world that moves between forceful momentum and fragile lyricism.
GIMS and Triangle des Bermudes deliver a night of hip-hop and French rap, blending commanding vocal delivery with dense, club-rooted production. Immersive visuals and bold lighting sculpt the kinetic momentum as guest artists and DJ sets extend into Baile do Village XXL. The staging balances large-scale spectacle and intimate moments, alternating explosive ensemble passages with close, rhythmic interludes. The overall atmosphere favors physical, communal engagement, where beats and textures reshape familiar songs into a visceral urban experience.
Yasuka Ishikawa, founder of Midnight Blossom, invites you to discover “Nos Kimonos” (Our Kimonos), an exhibition that presents the kimono in a new light: not as a static museum piece, but as a living garment worn in everyday life in Geneva.
Opening: Thursday, October 15 at 17:00, with a kitsuke (traditional Japanese dressing) demonstration at 18:30, and refreshments provided by small Geneva-based businesses dedicated to showcasing authentic Japan.
The exhibition is part of the “L’Automne de la culture japonaise 2026” program, supported by the Consulate of Japan in Geneva.
