Festivals

XNV Beach Party

From 2017 to 2025, Nico is the artistic director of the XNV Beach Party, the beach festival of Excenevex on the shores of Lake Geneva.

Line-up, stage, running order: he builds every edition and plays it. He also played the Geneva Lake Parade, in 2007 and again in 2023 alongside DJ Fect.
