Electron Festival is one of Europe’s leading festivals dedicated to electronic culture, bringing together pioneering artists, musicians, visual creators, researchers, and audiences through an ambitious multidisciplinary programme. Exploring the intersections of electronic music, digital arts, audiovisual performance, technology, and club culture, the festival offers immersive concerts, live performances, exhibitions, workshops, talks, and participatory experiences that celebrate both artistic innovation and experimentation.
LGBTIQ+ Memories Programme collects and shares the histories and memories of LGBTIQ+ movements and struggles in Geneva. Each year the programme supports exhibitions, a collected volume of texts, an annual prize and a call for archive and memory projects, while coordinating month-long activities that recognise diverse experiences. Open to everyone, it brings together community members, researchers and cultural partners to preserve stories, foster dialogue and strengthen communal ties across generations.
JazzContreBand celebrates its 30th anniversary with a new creation led by trumpeter Erik Truffaz. Franco‑Swiss musicians join forces with the Orchestre des Alpes et du Léman in Side by Side, a programme that blends classical writing, jazz phrasing and open-ended improvisation. The project explores textural contrasts, orchestral colours and solo interplay, shifting from intimate chamber passages to wide, cinematic swells. Expect nuanced dynamics, luminous timbres and collaborative dialogue across genres.
Explore spooky, playful adventures at Hallomania, a Halloween festival designed for families. Children will hunt for treats, solve mystery games, join guided night walks, take part in hands-on workshops, taste seasonal treats, and enjoy themed evenings. Activities combine storytelling, crafts, movement and sensory surprises to spark imagination and cooperative play. The programme encourages creativity, curiosity and shared discovery across a variety of family-friendly formats.

Walk through the cityscape that shaped Jorge Luis Borges, following a guided route that traces streets, squares and quiet corners tied to his life and work. The experience blends steady urban walking with close attention to architectural details and literary echoes, where fragments of story and memory surface amid façades and public spaces. A reflective, communal rhythm guides small groups, inviting participants to sense how the city’s textures and atmospheres are woven into Borges’s literature.
