Grand Théâtre de Genève

The largest performing arts institution in French-speaking Switzerland, the Grand Théâtre hosts more than 100,000 visitors for over 140 events annually, including opera, ballet, recitals, debates, and a program of activities for younger audiences. The Foundation has provided regular operating support for many years.

A recently completed structural renovation included the addition of beautiful new rehearsal rooms and public spaces. Renowned director Aviel Cahn, who took the helm of the institution at the start of the 2019-2020 season, has already received important recognition for the Grand Théâtre’s commitment to innovation and artistic quality, including Opernwelt magazine’s “Best Opera House” award.
