Immerse yourself in a magical world when Geneva Lux opens, illuminating the Jardin Anglais with a thousand lights. This daring new sound and light show transcends the limits of technology and creativity.

A monumental screen of water rises like a veil over the lake, providing the perfect canvas for the light projections. These lights, dancing and merging with the water, give life to a majestic hologram, playing with perspectives and offering a three-dimensional visual experience.

Let yourself be transported by this symphony of light and sound, a tribute to the beauty of Geneva and its innovative spirit. A must-see event for all lovers of art and technology.

DUNDU - 19-21 January 2024
The Giants of light

Friday, the 19th of January - 6:30 p.m. - Jardin Anglais
Saturday, the 20th of January - 6:30 p.m. – in front of the Bains des Pâquis
Sunday, 21st of January - 5 p.m. - Maison de l’enfance et de l’adolescence – HUG Genève
Inspiring people the world over, THE GIANTS OF LIGHT stand out for their ability to express emotions and tell universal stories of solidarity.
The Dundu are majestic puppets with flexible, transparent bodies. They wander around gently, accompanied by the melodious sounds of the Kora, a harp native to West Africa. Their almost
human-like behaviour is sure to surprise you. Come and meet them and let yourself be captivated.

These giants will open the festival with a performance evoking the birth of light. The term "Dundu", translated as "DU UND DU" or "you and you", symbolizes a beautiful metaphor for human life. It
reminds us that, together, we are capable of exceptional achievements, and that each of us is an integral part of a whole.

Don't miss their appearance around the Rade between 6:30 pm and 9 p.m. on January 19th and 20th and at the Maison de l'enfance et de l'adolescence on January 21st at 5pm.

AKA - 26-27 January 2024
Choreography of a giant puppet

Friday January 26th - 6:30 p.m., 7:30 p.m., 8:30 p.m., 9:30 p.m. - Jardin Anglais
Saturday January 27th - 6:30 p.m., 7:30 p.m., 8:30 p.m., 9:30 p.m. - Below the Quai du Mont-Blanc
AKA is the embodiment of the essential: the puppet in motion, a pure organic sound, a heartbeat, a breath. It represents introspection, contemplation, self-communion, a dance that merges with the landscape until it becomes an integral part of it.

This show is a vibrant call to overcome paralyzing fears, an encouragement to let go, to regain rhythm, energy and confidence. It urges us to live fully, to feel intensely, if only for a brief moment.
