Our summer calendar would not be complete without an evening by the lake. We are delighted to invite you to June's Monthly Drinks on Thursday, 18 June 2026, from 18:30 to 21:30, at the iconic La Potinière Genève, Jardin Anglais, 1204 Genève.
A Setting Made for Summer Evenings
Perched on the promenade facing Lake Geneva, La Potinière pairs crisp contemporary design with one of the city's most mesmerising panoramas: sailboats gliding past, indigo foothills beyond, and the Jet d'Eau catching the last glow of sunset. Whether you settle into a linen-draped banquette indoors or claim a teak table on the terrace, the setting is perfectly arranged for an evening of unhurried conversation — old friendships deepened, new ones kindled, and Oxbridge stories traded as dusk settles over the water.
An Evening to Savour
To make the night a little more convivial, we invite each guest to contribute CHF 15, which will allow us to offer food throughout the evening. A small gesture, we hope, that adds to the pleasure of the occasion.
Practicalities
Dress code: Smart casual — think "after-office garden party." A light layer is recommended; the lake breeze has a way of making itself known.
Getting there: Buses 2, 6, and E stop at Rive, a short five-minute stroll away. For those arriving by car, the Quai Gustave-Ador public car park is directly opposite.
We look forward to seeing you by the water.
We are delighted to invite you to the inaugural OCCG & CISL Family Picnic, a joint event bringing together members of the Oxford and Cambridge Club of Geneva and alumni of the Cambridge Institute for Sustainability Leadership.
The details are as follows:
Date: Sunday, 21 June 2026
Time: 11:00 to 16:00 (come and go as you please)
Venue: Jardin Botanique de Genève, on the lawn below Restaurant Amarante, close to the children's play area, the indoor shelter and the facilities
This is a relaxed, family-friendly afternoon in one of Geneva's most beautiful green spaces. There is no fixed programme, no guest list and no dress code. Simply bring a blanket, a basket, something to drink, a ball for the children, and good company. The theme, in keeping with the spirit of the garden, is the Six Buzzy Bees: Blanket, Basket, Bottle, Ball, Babies and Banter.
Attendance is informal and the event is open to all. Should you plan to join, we would be grateful if you could register through the link below, so that we can gauge numbers and coordinate accordingly.
We look forward to celebrating the beginning of summer with you.
Our summer calendar would not be complete without a gathering by the lake, so we are delighted to invite you to June’s Monthly Drinks in Lausanne on Thursday, 25 June 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.
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, 22 June 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.
