Urban Art Festival in Les Saugettes
Vista general
Introducción
In late August, the Funky Town Festival will take over the Passage des Saugettes for a weekend.
The Passage des Saugettes, located just 10 meters from the Lausanne train station, is a daily thoroughfare for thousands of pedestrians. Yet, despite its ultra-central location, this alley suffers from chronic visual neglect. With its 30 arcades enclosed by massive wooden and concrete doors—now covered in chaotic graffiti and darkened by the passage of time—the area has come to resemble a gloomy back alley that people rush through without a second glance.
For the past five years, Lud has been trying to bring this project to life and has been proposing a complete transformation of this space to the authorities. Why such perseverance? Because, as a regular user of this street, one thing became clear: this concrete corridor holds exceptional potential to attract visitors and serve as a cultural hub for the city of Lausanne. It’s the perfect spot to host an urban art festival in Lausanne.
On August 29 and 30, 2026, this long-held dream will finally become a reality. The Funky Town festival will take over the Passage des Saugettes to prove that urban art and murals have the power to redefine public space, visually enhance a street, and bring positive energy to the heart of our city.
