Winter has set up stall at The ice, a new complex offering saunas, massages, Nordic sports and a range of entertainment. It is also the season when the City lights up with the artistic installations of the Geneva Lux light festival. While spring blossomed in numerous parks, squares and streets around the City, summer set up camp at la CanopyL’Asphalt and the summer refreshment stands. Friendly gathering places were set up in les Bergues and les Eaux-Vives, while Quai Wilson gained a new bathing area. And autumn wasn’t to be outdone, with the focus on heritage and seasonal festivals.
