Our summer calendar would not be complete without a gathering by the lake, so we are delighted to invite you to July’s Monthly Drinks in Lausanne on Thursday, 16 July 2026, from 18:30 to 21:30 at The Lacustre, Quai Jean-Pascal Delamuraz 1, 1006 Lausanne.
A Setting Made for Lausanne Summer Evenings
Set on the Ouchy waterfront, The Lacustre offers one of Lausanne’s most attractive lakeside settings, with sweeping views over Lake Geneva and towards the mountains beyond. With its relaxed terrace atmosphere and privileged position by the water, it is an ideal venue for an informal Oxbridge gathering as the longer evenings return.
Whether you are based in Lausanne, Geneva, or elsewhere in Suisse romande, you will be perfectly placed to enjoy conversation, reconnect with old friends, and meet new members in a setting that captures the best of Lausanne by the lake.
What’s Included
Your ticket includes a generous spread of snacks, wood‑fired pizzas and other shared dishes to enjoy together.
Beverages (soft drinks, beer, wine and cocktails) are payable separately at the bar.
The Lacustre offers a relaxed lakeside setting and a menu built around fresh, seasonal, locally sourced ingredients - think vibrant small plates and authentic wood‑oven pizzas with blistered crusts and handpicked toppings. It’s the perfect spot for a laid‑back evening of good food, great conversation and views by the water.
Practicalities
Dress code:
Smart casual, think “after‑office by the lake.” Light layers are recommended, as the breeze from the lake can be refreshing in the evening.
Getting there:
The Lacustre is located at Quai Jean-Pascal Delamuraz 1, 1006 Lausanne, close to Ouchy. The venue is easily accessible by public transport, including the M2 metro to Ouchy-Olympique, followed by a short walk along the lakeside. Public parking is also available in the Ouchy area.
RSVP deadline:
Please confirm your attendance by Tuesday, 14 July 2026, as space may be limited and early confirmation will help us secure the best arrangement.
Why You Should Come
This Lausanne gathering is a wonderful opportunity to strengthen the Club’s presence beyond Geneva and bring together members from across the region in a relaxed and elegant setting.
Come to reconnect with a diverse, intellectually curious community who share your Oxbridge roots, exchange thoughts on Lausanne life, summer plans, books, careers, travels, or simply unwind by the lake after work.
