The Geneva Triathlon offers race formats for everyone! Whatever your age or skill level, whether you’re looking for victory or a challenge, there’s something for everyone!

Six race formats are on the program: Half, Standard, Short, Discovery and children’s races!

The events take place on a unique course in the heart of Geneva harbor, with the swim organized in Lake Geneva, the bike course running along the city center, and a final run on the banks of the lake. The course is marked by professionals and takes place on closed roads (except Half, which is partially closed).

​Thanks to the relay option, you can also participate in each adult race with your friends, colleagues, family, or even your training partners. Form a team of two or three now and take turns swimming, cycling, and running to share a great time together.

Roger Melt teams with Santosh on tablas for an intimate musical evening that blends jazz, reggae and funk with Antillean flavours. Melt’s songwriting and multi-instrumentalism — kora, voice, guitar and harp — weave warm melodies and rhythmic textures, while tablas and subtle grooves bring a creole pulse. The programme balances improvisation and structured songs, inviting a relaxed, danceable atmosphere accompanied by Afro‑European cuisine.

4 – 5 July

Charlie Chaplin’s The Circus follows his iconic Tramp as he is chased into a travelling fair and unexpectedly becomes part of a circus troupe. Chaplin directs with a blend of delicate melodrama and kinetic slapstick, balancing tenderness and physical comedy as the Tramp falls for the circus’ equestrienne. Shot in the late silent era, the film pairs precise visual choreography with social observation, culminating in lyrical set pieces that reveal Chaplin’s mastery of pathos and comic timing.

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.
