Unique Geneva festival starts today

Thursday, 27 January 2022 06:30

The Geneva Antigel festival starts today with its collection of eclectic events which includes cooking, dance, music, unique city tours to see places not normally open to the public.

If you want to let off steam by smashing up a car, you can do that. Take a mysterious mountain trip – in Geneva – or learn the mating dance of a bird of paradise.

It runs from today until the 19 February.

The hub of the festival will be on the Plage des Eaux Vives – not normally open at this time of year. The organiser, Eric Linder tells us that was one of the hardest things to arrange.
