Don’t just like it, live it!
Choreographed by Laurence Yadi and performed by Compagnie 7273, Silahkan invites audiences into a fluid, hypnotic dance inspired by Balinese ritual and imagery. Objects and fabrics transform into shifting landscapes as precise, undulating gestures create a continuous calligraphic movement. The piece unfolds as a gentle trance, balancing intimate metamorphosis and communal generosity, offering a poetic exploration of presence and welcome. Accessible to young audiences, its delicate staging transforms dance into a universal language.
This second edition of Matières inflammables places contemporary writing at the centre. Over three days, five new plays by today’s authors are presented in staged readings directed by contemporary directors and performed by powerful actors. The programme explores unheard texts—unpublished or rarely staged—using theatre as an echo chamber for political, visceral and joyful perspectives. Additional formats include Mets sur haut-parleur, a haunted café for conversation, and a closing party.

POSITIV comes to Geneva for a specially curated edition, assembling Paul Kalkbrenner, Mind Against, Nicolas Cuer and La Forêt among its lineup. The night is conceived as an immersive world: a monumental strip of staged areas hosts performances, roaming artists, installations, rides and food corners. The production by Village du Soir foregrounds spectacular scenography, marrying pulsing electronic sound with shifting light and visual design to create a disorienting, celebratory atmosphere that lingers beyond the music.
Megalloween, presented by Festival du Soir, stages an immersive, large-scale Halloween night where spectacle and collective ritual collide. The production blends theatrical mise-en-scène, cinematic staging and pulsing music to conjure creatures, sudden apparitions and a charged dancefloor. Costumes and scenographic moments create jolts of horror and communal delight, oscillating between dread and euphoria. This anniversary edition expands the festival’s immersive ambitions, offering a nocturnal journey through choreography, atmospheric lighting and dense soundscapes.

Text by Erri De Luca. Directed by Barbara Baker and F‑X Fernandez‑Cavada, Impossible unfolds after a man falls from a steep trail in the Dolomites. Blending investigation, memory and love letters, the staging probes guilt, betrayal and political history as two former members of the same terrorist group confront a shared past. The production balances documentary clarity and poetic fragments, offering a tense, intimate reflection on vengeance and the echoes of the 20th century into the present.

Join us for a community Halloween night celebrating Afro sounds, dance, and shared energy. Everyone is welcome to come dressed up, enjoy the costume contest, and move together to a lineup of Afro, shatta, dancehall, bouyon, amapiano, and kuduro rhythms. It is a night for meeting new people, celebrating different cultures, and enjoying an inclusive dancefloor where everyone can feel at ease, have fun, and be themselves in a respectful atmosphere.
With a beguiling blend of electronics, art pop, saudade and Latin alternative rock, Ão has become one of Belgium’s most vibrant acts. Rooted in Mozambican and Portuguese heritage, vocalist Brenda Corijn sings in Portuguese and English with a warm, magnetic tone, supported by Siebe Chau’s guitar, Jolan Decaestecker’s electronics and Bert Peyffers’ percussion. Their new album Malandra deepens their sound with greater rhythm and rougher textures, brought to life in dynamic live performances.
