Genève – Centre Ville is Geneva’s central urban district hosting the city’s main cultural, commercial and historic sites. The area combines museums, theatres, galleries, restaurants, shops and public squares, hosting festivals, markets and civic events. It functions as Geneva’s cultural hub and meeting place, reflecting the city’s historic identity and contemporary cultural life.
Balades Théâtralisées invites audiences on an outdoor theatrical promenade that uncovers hidden city histories through staged scenes in natural settings. The troupe blends guided narration with short dramatic tableaux, favouring emotional resonance over strict historical reenactment. Soundscapes and simple lighting sculpt nocturnal and intimate atmospheres, while performers shift between storytelling and embodiment. The route alternates between the company’s traditional itinerary and a new underground-themed walk, creating a layered experience of memory, surprise and communal discovery.

Art en Vieille-Ville’s 38th edition presents sixteen concurrent exhibitions that bridge generations, techniques and narrative voices. The programme highlights artists such as Sofia Cacciapaglia, Sylvie Lambert, Étienne Krähenbühl, Yvan Salomone and glass artist Damien François. Works range from glasswork and illustrated books to immersive installations and other contemporary practices. Thematically the shows probe memory, dreamscapes, and the poetic effects of light, revealing intimate dialogues between image, object and book while tracing intergenerational connections and varied material languages.
