– First special train to return from Annecy fireworks
At the initiative of the Rail Dauphiné Savoie Léman association, a night train will allow Geneva residents to attend the show to return home, on the night of August 6 to 7.
Frustrated by the lack of fireworks in Geneva? For its big comeback, the Lake Annecy festival, on August 6, announces a 70-minute pyrotechnic show. In order to enable the people of Geneva to attend, the Rail Dauphiné Savoie Léman association has asked the SNCF and Lémanis, operator of the Léman Express, to consider a special night train so that spectators in the canton can receive on board this train.
The two companies responded favorably and a TER train will leave Annecy for Annemasse at 0:24. The Léman Express will take over, arriving in Geneva shortly before 2 a.m. This train will serve the stations of Chêne-Bourg, Eaux-Vives, Champel, Lancy-Bachet, Lancy-Pont-Rouge, Geneva, as far as Genthod, Versoix, Pont-Céard, Mies, Tannay and Coppet, terminus at 2h26 .
For their ninetieth anniversary, the lake festivities will last all week with free concerts and street performances.
