The trail mixes playful puzzles, movement, and tasting treats, ending with a friendly meeting with Pak’alapin and plenty of chocolate.

Search for bewitched eggs and follow clues in a lively outdoor hunt. Run between orienteering stations and adventure games as Paka’lapin races to save Easter. Meet the Secret People who tell big stories about nature, listen to birds and buzzing bees, and spot colorful plants.

Create, print and animate insect friends. Start by imagining and modeling your own fantastic insect in 3D, inspired by real rainforest species. Then print it, paint bright colors, add textures and recycled materials to decorate its body. Place your creature into a shared vivarium that fills with color and tiny movements. Finish with a stop-motion workshop to make your insect walk and buzz on screen, learning about shape, texture and storytelling through hands-on play.

In French. Kids ages 8 and up.

Events running for an extended period

17 March 2025 – 1 September 2026

The Biopark is temporarily hosting Janus, a unique two-headed Greek tortoise, during the renovation of the Museum. Each head of this male tortoise has its own independent brain, which sometimes makes its movements challenging. In captivity, Janus receives attentive care, resulting in an impressive lifespan of 26 years.

12 – 25 March

Eight artists — Fernando de la Rocque, Jean Marie Fahy, Dara Maillard, Lyz Parayzo, Wes Roque, Almeida da Silva, Vivianne Van Singer and Martin Widmer — examine paper as a deliberate field of possibility. Treating sheets as material and gesture, they deploy drawing, cutting, layering and mark‑making to activate intimacy, fragility and resilience. The works reclaim paper as presence rather than support, exploring immediacy, vulnerability and the poetic potential of minimal means.

Opening during the Nuit des Bains, Thursday 12 March, 18:00.

12 March – 1 May

May 1972 is an exhibition dedicated to Salvatore Emblema (Naples, 1929–2006), bringing together works produced between the late 1960s and the early 1980s. Across paintings, sculptures and installations, Emblema refines a conceptual language that interrogates materiality, form and temporality. The presentation highlights his experimental use of found materials, assemblage and reductive gestures, situating these works within postwar Italian avant‑garde practices and the artist’s evolving exploration of spatial and epistemic limits.

20 October – 6 May

Ready to dive into the dark depths off the island of Antikythera to discover an ancient shipwreck? The exhibition Nouvelles d’Anticythère presents the research carried out between 2021 and 2025 by the Classical Archaeology Unit of the University of Geneva, in collaboration with the Greek Ministry of Culture. It examines the famous shipwreck discovered in 1900 — a major merchant vessel that sank in the 1st century BCE — and invites visitors to discover the site and understand why it remains a key subject for archaeological research across the Mediterranean.

1 – 6 May

“Métamorphose.” The exhibition aims to bring together artists and artworks inspired by the theme of spring in all its forms and interpretations. Each artistic contribution brings a distinct voice to this shared reflection on transformation and renewal.

23 January – 30 April

London-based artist Konstantina Krikzoni presents a body of paintings born from an intense solitary studio practice. Her work blurs painting and sculpture: textured, tactile canvases where brushwork and sculptural modelling interweave. Silent yet confrontational female figures occupy compositions in grey and yellow, evoking funerary motifs and the logic of memory and grief. ARMATURA functions as metaphor and method — an internal armature of endurance that shapes emotion into form through material exploration and sustained process.
