Leman Bleu Live Stream

Léman Bleu is the local television channel of Geneva, on air since 1996, covering the city's news, culture and public debate in French.

Geneva's local channel

The grid mixes local news with cultural programmes and debates on the city's public life: the canton's politics, its international institutions and its cultural scene. Programmes are in French, the language of the region.

Founded in 1996

Léman Bleu was launched as Geneva's first local television station, at a time when Swiss broadcasting was opening to private regional channels. Its model since then has been the one local Swiss stations use: a cable slot, a small newsroom and advertising from the canton's businesses.

International Geneva

Geneva hosts the United Nations' European headquarters, the World Health Organization, the Red Cross, the WTO and hundreds of NGOs, along with the headquarters of several multinational companies. A local channel in that city covers diplomatic conferences as municipal news, because they happen on its streets and affect its traffic.

Debates and the canton

Geneva's politics are distinct from the rest of Switzerland: a canton with a strong services economy, high rents and a large cross-border workforce from France. Debates on housing, transport across the border and the canton's finances fill the schedule.

Cable, stream and the region

Léman Bleu broadcasts on Geneva's cable network and streams through its website, reaching viewers in the canton and the neighbouring French departments.
