This stage, located in the centre of the Arteplage Neuchâtel, mainly plays pop, rock and world music. But it also hosts folk music concerts, cantonal days and thematic events, such as the energy & environment theme weeks.

The Grande Scène is a 2'000 m2 roof. Long, inclined metal columns simultaneously support and brace a steel structure under which a lattice-like roof is suspended so that daylight falls down. A transparent polyethylene film stretched over glulam frames serves as weather protection.
