ABOUT FAR° NYON

Since 1984 far° Nyon is known for its live arts festival which takes place each August for ten days. The aim of the festival is to present projects by artists from the contemporary performing arts scene from Switzerland and abroad. Audiences can see circus and dance performances, theatre productions, performances, exhibitions and open-air concerts, as well as taking part in group discussions such as workshops and audience meetings. Since 2018, far° has two temporalities; its activities extend from September to July under the name of fabrique des arts vivants, whose main axes are support for creation – and more specifically for emerging contemporary artists – hosting artist residencies, long-term artistic accompaniment as well as mediation and cultural participation initiatives.
