This historical and traditional festival animates the whole old town for a weekend. Costumes, parades, music, workshops..

Geneva's most popular historical festival. The fête de l'Escalade commemorates the victory of the Genevois over their Savoyard attackers on December 12, 1602. Anchored in the hearts of Genevans, it symbolizes victory and, above all, is synonymous with Geneva's independence. For several days, historical parades in 17th-century costumes, games, mulled wine stands and concerts enliven the city and its historic center. The procession of costumed children travels from bistro to bistro, singing the patois song Ce q'uè l'ainô, which recounts the episode.
