“Réveillon de la solidarité” at the Plainpalais community centre

This year, following two editions cancelled due to the pandemic, the City is once again organising a “Réveillon de la solidarité” New Year’s Eve event. Offering disadvantaged people and those living alone some welcome warmth and conviviality, this festive evening is open to all. So why not come along to the Plainpalais community centre from 6.45 p.m. on 31 December 2022 to share a meal and enjoy the different entertainment organised until the early hours.

Over the years, the “Réveillon de la solidarité” has been a hit with a broad public beyond the people already known to the emergency social outreach network.

Every year, almost 600 participants come together at the Plainpalais community centre to share a meal and see the New Year in to the backdrop of dance and entertainment. It is an opportunity for everyone to welcome the New Year in a spirit of sharing.

Various events

Open to all, entry to the event is in rue Pictet-de-Bock, with a little music to get the evening started. An official part is scheduled, attended by Executive Councillor Christina Kitsos. 

Various events will take place throughout the evening, including magic shows by Gianfranco and a light show with Lumen, the dream-maker. Champagne on the stroke of midnight and entertainment guaranteed with a DJ! The dance floor will be open until 2 in the morning.

Particular attention has been paid to the menu, with a number of local products being served. Children (aged 4 to 10) are welcome, with a dedicated area including games provided by the Saint-Jean games library.

The “Réveillon de la solidarité” is organised by the Social Service, with the support of 80 volunteers who generously offer their time in order to contribute to the success of the evening.
