The society has its own headquarters situated at 10 rue Pré-de-la-Fontaine, 1242 Satigny which brings together all the parts of the society. Please note, some Sat Navs have the address listed with the postcode 1217 Meyrin.
The largest rehearsal room complete with a small stage and grand piano is the main area in which the full cast, choral group and orchestra rehearse. It's also an area to host meetings, musical evenings and social events. Lighting, a sound system and projector are all available.
There are also smaller rooms which provide the possibility for principals or soloists to work separately.

Additional parking is also available in the multi-level parking on Rue du Pré-Bouvier, which is a 3-minute walk from the main entrance to the complex. The pricing is the same as above.
