Meeting place for people and ideas, culture, finance and sport, Geneva is the home of the European headquarters of the United Nations. The Canton of Geneva has a total of 450,000 inhabitants and lies at the heart of a dynamic region on the shores of Western Europe’s largest lake. The city’s history, dating back more than 2,000 years, provides a rich cultural heritage. Today, Geneva is not only an important financial centre and a well-known congress and exhibition venue, it is also a city of watches, industry, science and gastronomy, with a famous winegrowing area on its doorstep. Geneva, home of FC Servette, also stands for a high quality of life and is described as the “smallest of metropolises” on account of its manageable size. The football stadium can hold 30,000 spectators and will host three group matches.
