🍇 Let’s celebrate the grape harvest together! 🍷

We’ll meet Protected content , then enjoy a scenic walk to the charming wine-growing village of Russin for the 63rd edition of the annual Grape Harvest Festival.

For one weekend, Russin transforms into a vibrant celebration of Geneva’s wine culture, bringing together locals, visitors, winemakers, food lovers, and anyone looking for a great day out. Wander through the picturesque streets, discover the region’s finest wines, and sample delicious local specialties while soaking up the festive atmosphere.

This beloved festival is a tribute to the Geneva vineyards and the passionate producers behind them. Along the way, you'll have plenty of opportunities to taste wines made from local grape varieties, meet the people who craft them, and learn what makes Geneva wines so special.

Expect lively entertainment, music, street performances, food stalls, and activities throughout the village all weekend long. Whether you're a wine enthusiast, a foodie, or simply looking for a fun day in the countryside, there’s something for everyone.

At 14:00, after enjoying lunch from one of the many street food stalls, we will watch the traditional parade featuring around twenty decorated and flower-adorned floats, accompanied by numerous marching bands from the region.

✨ Good wine, great food, beautiful scenery, and even better company. What more could you ask for?
