Orchestrated by fourteen Swiss and French companies, the performances are played as close as possible to the spectators and allow them to discover, in the heart of the city, the diversity of the living arts.

Organized by the company Mine de Rien, Art à la Rue, the festival is a free event for all. For the third consecutive year, Joane Reymond, creator and artistic director of the event, is working to liven up the Geneva summer evenings.

In 2019, she answers the call for tender of the City to animate the 2020 summer season with her four street shows, while respecting the sanitary rules. And in 2021, thanks to a subsidy from the transformation fund proposed by the canton and the Federal Office of Culture, it will develop this project initiated in 2020 into a real festival welcoming companies from Switzerland and neighboring France. This year, the event is enriched with even more shows, as many favorites spotted during its tribulations.

A production of the Mine de Rien Company with the support of the Federal Office of Culture, the Republic and Canton of Geneva, the Sandoz Family Philanthropic Foundation, the Leenards Foundation and the Ernest Göhner Foundation.
