The historical building of the Palais de Beaulieu. It is, with Lausanne railway station, one of the two buildings displaying the sign "Lausanne capitale olympique" ("Lausanne Olympic Capital").

Palais de Beaulieu is a convention centre located in Lausanne, Switzerland.

The centre includes the Théâtre de Beaulieu concert, dance and theatre hall and hosted the 1989 Eurovision Song Contest. With more than 1,800 seats, the Théâtre de Beaulieu is the biggest theatre in Switzerland.[1] The Prix de Lausanne, an international ballet competition, is hosted at the centre.

History

In 2015, following the opening of the Swiss Tech Convention Center on the Lausanne campus, the owners and managers of Beaulieu decided to reduce the conference activities (except general assemblies) and to concentrate on trade fairs (such as the Comptoir suisse).[1]
