From the 2006 yearbook

“We should plan something, where we decide on a week that we all come back to Geneva, and we’ll sit in the pubs again like we used to.”

— Nick Hall, LGB yearbook, 2006

Twenty years later, here we are.

Who's coming

of us have said yes so far — recognise a face? That's your cue.

The evening

A dinner, not a conference.

Adults only on the 8th — a +1, not a +2, +3 or +4. Kids get the Sunday: a long, slow BBQ by the lake, families welcome.

Organised by

Somebody had to do this.

Reunions don't organise themselves. These three have spent months on it — the date, the venue hunt, the hundred and twenty people who needed asking twice.

With help from Ally Belfry, Michel Kull, Julie Gros Bozzo, Vincent Mossaz, Tudor Leriu, Emily Laven Griffiths and Camil Touimi — who found the numbers, the photos, and the people nobody could place.

Beyond the night

We are, collectively, a rather
useful group of people.

Doctors, founders, teachers, engineers, diplomats, parents — across eighty countries and a dozen languages. This site doesn't close on the 9th of August. It's where the class stays reachable: a directory, a board of offers and asks, and a cause we choose together.

The weekend

The 8th is the reason. Everything around it exists because people are flying a long way, and one dinner is a thin excuse for a transatlantic flight.

Saturday 8 August · the main event

What your CHF 120 evening looks like

The evening is at the Kiosque des Bastions — the Belle Époque glass pavilion in the Parc des Bastions, in the heart of Geneva. Renovated in 2022: century-old trees, chandeliers, a green-tiled bar and a terrace onto the park. We've privatised the Rotunda — the rounded room with the best view over the gardens.

In your ticket

A Prosecco to start, then three Geneva wines — four glasses in all, not an open bar

Not drinking? The same four, in mocktails of your choice

A generous run of the chef's cocktail pieces — warm and cold bites, verrines and sweet things, passed and set out all evening

The Rotunda to ourselves — a standing apéro dînatoire, made for moving around and actually talking

A taste of what's coming

The chef's final selection is still being set — it's drawn from a table like this:

Foie gras & apricot brioche Beef tartare Tuna tataki & guacamole Crab & yuzu bun Vitello tonnato Mini beef burger Truffle croque-monsieur Chicken gyoza Sashimi trio Roasted feta tartlet Tiramisu Lemon-meringue tartlet Mini Paris-Brest Pistachio crème brûlée

Food — savoury and sweet bitesCHF 66
Four glasses — Prosecco + 3 Geneva wines (or mocktails)CHF 40

Vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free options run right through the menu. If you have an allergy, just reply to your confirmation email and we'll flag it to the kitchen.

Hosting something?

A walk through campus, a coffee for the Sunday stragglers, a late one for those who never learned. Propose it — an organiser publishes it, and it appears here with its own RSVP.

Memories

Emily has a hard drive. Camil has boxes. Tudor volunteered to host the lot. Put them here instead — one place, full resolution, nobody's phone compressing them into mush.

In our own words

What we wrote in 2006

The quotes we chose when we left — copied straight from the graduation yearbook.

Baby faces of 2006

The Class of 2006

Eighty countries, and most of us have no idea where the others ended up. These are the ones we've placed so far — claim your ticket and fill in your own.

Add yourself — a photo of you in 2006, one of you now, and the languages you speak.

What we can do for each other

Offers & asks

A hundred and thirty-seven people with twenty years of careers, contacts and spare rooms between them. Ask plainly. Offer plainly. Nobody here is a stranger.

Giving back

One cause, chosen together.

We were given an education most of the world doesn't get. Before August we pick one cause, as a class, and put something real behind it. Propose one; we vote in July. Donations go directly to the charity — this site never touches money.

In memoriam

Those we lost

If this page is hard to read — and for some of us it will be — you don't have to sit with it alone. In Switzerland: La Main Tendue, 143, day or night. Elsewhere: findahelpline.com.

Claim your ticket

This is the ticket to the dinner at the Kiosque des Bastions, Geneva — Saturday 08.08.2026, 20:00. CHF 120 per ticket covers the whole evening — a glass of Prosecco and three glasses of Geneva wine per person (not an open bar), a generous spread of the chef's savoury and sweet bites, and the Rotunda of the Kiosque privatised for us in the heart of Geneva. It's a standing apéro dînatoire, not a sit-down dinner — you move around all night. Mocktails for the non-drinkers. Bringing a +1? Take two tickets. Your ticket is confirmed the moment you pay.

Who's bringing what

Bring the family — and bring enough to share, for about three people, so there's plenty for everyone. Add what you'll bring (so we don't end up with twelve potato salads and no dessert) and see what's already covered.

Private to you

The soundtrack

Songs that were us

The tracks that owned 2004–2006 — the common room, the formal, someone's car with the windows down. Add yours, and we'll play them all weekend.

Badges

Print-ready name-badges from the approved profiles — then & now photos, languages, and a QR that saves the person to your phone in one tap. 54 × 85 mm, for a lanyard. Fill in a profile with contact details and it appears here.

For those who can't make it

From afar

Can't be in Geneva on the 8th? You're still one of us. Leave a photo and a few words — a memory, a hello, a wish — and we'll put it up on the big screen at the party, so you're in the room with us.

Screen mode

Point a projector or a big TV at this, hit fullscreen, and let it run all night — messages from classmates who couldn't make it, and the live photos from the party, on a loop.

Break the ice

Mixer bingo

Twenty years is a lot of catching up. Here's your excuse to walk up to anyone in the room: find a classmate for each square, cross it off, and get a line of three for a toast. Tap Shuffle for a fresh card — no two are quite the same.

Find someone who…

Bingo! Go find an organiser for your toast 🥂
