Lake Geneva region, Switzerland (GenevaLunch) - The Geneva edition of the fête de la musique attracted 200,000 visitors this past weekend, 19-21 June, organizers said.
Rain on Friday night dampened the festivities a bit, and it was windy and cold on Saturday. But 500 official concerts and 2,000-3,000 musicians around town and the surrounding communes ensured something for every taste, from hip-hop to classical, reports Le Temps (Fre).
Dancers performed in front of the Reformers’ wall in the Parc des Bastions in Geneva. In Lausanne, organizers counted 45,000 music lovers, but the turnout in Neuchatel was disappointing, reports TSR (Fre).
