The boxing-inspired pavilion in New York City’s East Village will host events, exhibits, and performances over three days at the world’s largest climate festival, featuring Swiss and international efforts to combat climate change framed as “the fight of the century.” From September 25 to 27, rising stars and heavyweights from research, innovation, and the arts will go toe to toe with our current planetary crisis. Swissnex’s boxing-inspired pavilion will serve as a central stage for Swiss engagement at Climate Week NYC 2024, the world’s largest and most bustling climate festival.
Referred to by The New York Times as a “Burning Man for climate geeks,” this annual rendez-vous for climate culture features over 600 events, from tech mixers and VIP dinners to concerts and Earth-inspired drag shows, taking place across New York in parallel with the UN General Assembly High-Level Week. It brings together climate leaders from government, business, technology, arts, creative industries, academia, and civil society.
