La Baraka is the temporary home of the theatre, restaurant, bar, bookshop, coworking space with wi-fi, around the shows, space for debates, meetings and parties.
A temporary place of conviviality during the works of the theater, La Baraka is the focus of the theater. It is transformed over the course of the day and the weeks: a restaurant offering a dish of the day and salads for lunch, a quiet and friendly café in the afternoon with a terrace, lounge area, coworking area and free wi-fi to come and read or work in peace, it becomes a hive of activity in the evening, with the artists and Vidy's teams. Upstairs, the offices welcome the theatre's teams during the construction period.
The Kantina is open from Monday to Friday from 9am to 4pm and 1 hour before and after shows, including on weekends.
According to the latest federal and cantonal decisions, the public must present a Covid 2G certificate (from 16 years old) to have access to the indoor spaces.
