> PRACTICAL INFO

Most GLAS events take place in either the Aula at the Collège des Coudriers (Avenue de Joli-Mont 15), just across the street from the Balexert shopping mall, or the Evangelical Lutheran Church of Geneva close to Place du Bourg-de-Four (20 Rue Verdaine, 1204 Geneva). See the maps below.

Tickets can be paid for and picked up from 30 minutes before the performance begins. Drinks, sandwiches and snacks are available in the lobby before the performance and also during the interval (for shows that include one). The famous GLAS raffle is an integral part of the evening’s entertainment  tickets are sold before the show and during the interval.

Getting there

Aula, Collège Sismondi

  • The No. 15 tram stops right outside the school, at the Collège Sismondi stop. Any bus serving Place des Nations is also convenient, requiring just a short stroll down Ave. de France.
  • It is within easy walking distance of the Park+Ride Sécheron on Ave. de France.
  • The Parking des Nations on Rue Varembe is also nearby.

Aula, Collège des Coudriers

  • The closest bus stop, a 3-5 minute walk from the venue, is “Pailly-Balexert”, served by the 10 bus from Rive via Cornavin Station to Geneva Airport.
  • “Bouchet” is about a 10 minute walk from the venue and is served by the 14 and 18 trams as well as buses 10 and 22.
  • It is also possible to park at the Collège.

Evangelical Lutheran Church of Geneva

  • The church is easily accessible by public transport. Bus 8, 9 or 25 from Cornavin station to Hotel Metropole or to Rive, then walk 5 minutes; or bus 5 from Cornavin to Palais Eynard, cross the main road and walk into the old town, Place du Bourg-de-Four.
  • Parking during the week is very limited in the Old Town area. The underground garages of ‘St. Antoine’ or ‘Parking Rive’ are the closest.
