Grand Théâtre de Genève to relocate performances to Bâtiment des Forces Motrices (BFM) during renovation work

From 1 January 2026 until the end of June 2027, the Grand Théâtre will close its doors at Place de Neuve whilst renovation work is carried out, including, in particular, the replacement of the stage machinery and improvements to the acoustics of the orchestra pit.

During this period, most opera and dance performances will be staged at the Bâtiment des Forces Motrices (BFM), 2 Place des Volontaires, Geneva. Other activities will take place at various venues, in partnership with other local institutions.

The Grand Théâtre’s box office and reception remain located in the building on Place de Neuve.
