Where, specifically, are the fireworks tomorrow?

I've been poking around the official websites, and can't find the specifics.  Is it the stadium just next to Geneva Plage?  I'm trying to decide if/where we'll go to watch it.


thanks,


Sylvia

The fireworks are shot from the surface of the lake, in front of the Mont Blanc bridge. The bridge itself and either side of the lake are good locations to watch. It gets extremely crowded, go early to secure a spot or for a more relaxed experience get a table at one of the numerous terraces around.

I believe the show is 'optimized' for the (paid) seating area at the Pont du Mont Blanc. But much of that bridge, and much of the area on both sides (Quai du Mont Blanc and Jardin Anglais) require tickets for decent viewing.


Good places to see something may be a bit further away, for example in front of Parc des Eaux-Vives. But even there it may be crowded. Or try to find a high place (Kempinski hotel?), but you probably not the only person to think of that.
