Introduced a little over a half a century ago in Lausanne, choreography has found a home to establish itself in under all its forms. A pioneer in cultural politics with a strong conviction for supporting dance, the city of Lausanne ceased the opportunity, since the 80s, to promote and defend this development. The strong ties developed throughout the years between the city and its institutions have allowed for the formation of crucial and fundamental structures for choreography, the insurance of the continuing presence of its intermediaries, and for the emergence and settlement of the best creators, schools, companies and festivals. All of these developments contribute to the city’s identity of being an international capital city for choreography, reinforced with the nearly 30 year presence of the Béjart Ballet Lausanne.

Founded in 1988, the Fonds intercommunal de soutien aux Institutions culturelles of the Lausanne region is composed today of 20 district members. They provide an annual fund that a management committee is responsible for and then distributes to its four supported institutions: Béjart Ballet Lausanne, l’Opéra de Lausanne, le Théâtre de Vidy and the Orchestre de Chambre de Lausanne.

Nestlé places communities at the heart of its engagement strategy. Through its Nestlé Cares for Communities programme, Nestlé is committed to building lasting partnerships with local stakeholders. This initiative aims to support local organisations by encouraging projects, particularly in the cultural and sporting fields, that actively contribute to the vitality and cohesion of local life. In this context, the youth partnership with the Béjart Ballet Lausanne seeks to open up the world of ballet to a young, local audience that may still be unfamiliar with the art form, through outreach activities such as workshops, as well as a signature event entitled “Le Ballet dans la ville” (Ballet in the City). This outdoor performance invites young people, who benefit from privileged access, along with the general public, for a unique discovery of the art of ballet and the company.
