Geneva Lux stages a luminous parcours through the city centre and Old Town of Geneva, presenting for over twelve years an evening programme of light installations and live performances. Around twenty works transform public streets and historic architecture into immersive, often poetic environments. The festival foregrounds sensory and spatial experience, exploring how light reconfigures perception of urban space and winter, and how temporary interventions reveal layers of memory, intimacy and collective circulation in the nocturnal city.

Françoise Boillat brings Antigone to life in an outdoor performance set against the backdrop of seven “remarkable trees” each month. This unique production weaves Antigone’s defiance of political authority with her devotion to the gods. The ancient trees stand as silent witnesses to the enduring human struggles between law, nature, and freedom.
