Description

The tallest tower in the canton, two buildings facing one another, and a perfect straight line suspended 667 metres above the ground. An ideal playground for world-record slackliner Nathan Polin. After defying gravity in every corner of the globe, he turns to something more poetic: an experience designed to converse with the iconic architecture of the Lignon neighbourhood. It’s the perfect opportunity to discover what it feels like to be perched so high, as Nathan Polin will be in constant contact with the ground team below. Down on solid earth, spectators arriving for the event—and passers-by who simply happen to look up—will be treated to music by Swiss ambient master and Young Gods drummer Bernard Trontin, setting the rhythm from start to finish.
