Join a citywide celebration of piano, music and community as an open-air project places playable pianos across Geneva. For 15 years the initiative has invited everyone to sit, play or listen, mixing spontaneous performances with a programme of short acoustic concerts in unexpected public settings. Instruments are freely accessible and many performances are announced only on the spot, creating shared, inclusive musical moments that bring neighbours and visitors together.
To celebrate its 175th anniversary, the Commune of Plan-les-Ouates unveils a vibrant year-long programme bringing together concerts, live performances, exhibitions, markets, sports tournaments, historical experiences, community celebrations and immersive cultural events. Blending heritage with contemporary creativity, the festivities highlight the people, traditions and local energy that have shaped the commune across generations, with everything from open-air celebrations and artistic workshops to virtual reality experiences, comedy shows, themed evenings and family-friendly activities designed to bring the entire community together.
Join this welcoming NGO forum marking 60 years of collective engagement for global solidarity. Open to everyone, the gathering invites residents, activists and curious visitors to explore exhibitions, films, information stands, cultural performances and community activities. Meet member organisations, discover their projects, share conversations and enjoy world cuisine and solidarity stalls. Together we celebrate shared commitment, learn from international initiatives, and connect across cultures through art, storytelling and collaboration. Everyone is welcome to join in, contribute and build lasting community ties.
Join a lively folk dance party where musicians and dancers bring Hungarian, Slovak and Transylvanian traditions to life. Leap into simple children’s dances, clap to rhythmic fiddle tunes and feel the drums and flutes lift the music. Watch bright skirts swirl, learn steps with helpers, and sing short refrains. The hall fills with warm voices, energetic footsteps and the smell of tasty pastries at the food stalls, all inviting imagination and movement.
Choreographed by Tidiani N’Diaye, this urban parade is a collective moving performance that links choreography and civic engagement. Performers and participants wear costumes fashioned from colourful single-use plastic bags, a striking symbol of consumption’s excess and global imbalance. The work traces themes of North–South interconnection, climate and social justice, weaving ritual, rhythmic procession and communal singing into a vibrant public tableau. Created in collaboration with the Fédération genevoise de coopération for its 60th anniversary and Shap Shap, the parade is celebratory and questioning.
Local community associations gather for a day of family-friendly activities and a traditional firefighters’ ball. Throughout the day there will be stalls, performances and chances to meet neighbour groups, share food and enjoy music together. Everyone is welcome — families, friends and newcomers — to connect, volunteer or simply celebrate community spirit in a warm, inclusive setting. Visitors can discover local initiatives, speak with volunteers and find ways to get involved.
Wander through rolling vineyard hills and village lanes to explore three distinct wine regions. Gentle slopes, river valleys and sunlit terraces create a variety of terrain underfoot, from dirt tracks to quiet village paths. The day hums with convivial energy as neighbours and visitors move from cellar to cellar, sampling recent vintages and discovering local character. Ideal for gentle walks and curious explorers, the route blends accessible outdoor activity with sensory moments among vines and open countryside.
