Concerts start up again

Friday, 24 September 2021 04:31

Large concerts are beginning to return. The Geneva Arena will be hosting a series of events from October until Christmas.

But there are concerns the public may shun large gatherings for the time being. The head of the promotion company Opus One, Vincent Sager, told the Tribune de Genève the Covid pass should encourage people to get together. 

But the pandemic is affecting the line-up. The first few artists to be on stage at the Arena are all French - but there are hopes more international artists will be able to appear next year.
