Bachata Geneva Festival 2026 in Le Grand-Saconnex
The Bachata Social World Cup finals are part of the Bachata Geneva Festival 2026. A Geneva qualifying tournament for the competition will also take place. Those primarily looking to dance Bachata themselves will find an extensive program of workshops and social dancing. The festival runs from October 8 at 18:00 to October 12 at 06:00 at the Palexpo Congress Center in Le Grand-Saconnex.
Bachata Workshops and Social Dancing
The festival is scheduled to include 65 hours of workshops and 50 hours of social dancing. This makes the event suitable both for people who want to improve their Bachata and for dancers who value plenty of time on the dance floor. More than 100 artists have been announced. The program also includes six hours of masterclasses for certified dancers.
Competition and Festival Venue
The Bachata Social World Cup features in two parts of the program: alongside the World Cup finals, a Geneva qualifying tournament will take place. Visitors can therefore combine watching the competition with dancing themselves at the same event. Food trucks and a mixology bar are also planned on site.
Tickets and Location
The Full Pass costs 174 euros in Phase 3 and 189 euros in Phase 4. A Party Pass is also available. The venue is the Palexpo Congress Center at Route François-Peyrot 30 in Le Grand-Saconnex. The multi-day schedule, extending into the early hours of October 12, is particularly relevant for guests who want to combine workshops, social dancing and the competition.
