Of course all festivals are important. There is a huge range of events to take part in, according to you preferences, and you will find them all as productive as they are enjoyable. If you’re the sort of person who thinks, ‘I can never get enough of art, but taking in all branches of the arts at once is much more satisfying,’ there is a festival that will suit you to a tee in Switzerland’s historical city of Geneva. Festival Archipel has been running since 1992 and is one of the most important festivals, not just in Geneva, but in the whole of Switzerland. With a dazzling array of entertainment, ranging from concerts to theatre, from dance to films, and many more activities besides, Festival Archipel is also an opportunity to watch some world famous names performing. It seems like the right point to mention that, at the same time, the festival makes a point of bringing talented, but unknown, individuals to the stage. If you enjoy watching and listening to artists that are far from the mainstream, Festival Archipel promises to be a real treasure trove.
