Located in the centre of the Arteplage Neuchâtel, this stage mainly hosted pop, rock and world music performances. However, folk music concerts, canton days and themed events, such as the Energy & Environment theme weeks, also took place here.
The Grande Scène was a 2'000 m2 canopy. Long, sloping metal supports simultaneously carried and braced a steel structure, under which a lattice-like roof was suspended so that daylight could shine through. A transparent polyethylene film stretched over a glulam frame served as weather protection.
