The Léman Bouquet Festival, founded by Ágnes Havas, merges music, cycling, and gastronomy along the shores of Lake Geneva. Stretching between the communes of Haute-Savoie and those in French-speaking Switzerland, participants embark on a four-stage cycling journey, complemented by diverse music performances. This festival champions responsible cycling tourism and international cultural cooperation while celebrating local culture and environmental preservation.

Caribana began in 1989 as a casual lakeside music party organized by a group of friends who loved music, sunshine, and cocktails. Its tropical, free-spirited vibe quickly became central to its identity. Over the years, the festival expanded—adding a second stage and blues music in 1997, along with shuttle services. Today, Caribana has grown into a major event drawing tens of thousands of attendees and hosting global music stars like Mika, ZZ Top, Imagine Dragons, and Patti Smith, while still holding onto its original joyful spirit.
