Description

From 31 October, as the festive season approaches, La Villette is decked out in thousands of lights to welcome Light Cycles for the first time in France, an immersive light installation that transforms the park into a veritable fairy tale of light. Imagine nature enhanced by giant circles of light, synchronised to a spellbinding soundtrack, which come to life before your eyes and invite you on a dreamlike journey. This trail, accessible to all, is an invitation to dream and marvel, ideal for an outing with family or friends.

An interactive and fun experience

Light Cycles is more than just a show: it's an interactive adventure where everyone becomes part of the magic. Children love running between the glowing rings, triggering visual and sound effects, and playing with the light patterns projected onto the floor. Parents, meanwhile, appreciate the warm and poetic atmosphere, perfect for capturing memories in photos or simply enjoying a moment of togetherness.

An exceptional setting for the festive season

Located in the Parc de la Villette, one of the largest green spaces in Paris, Light Cycles blends harmoniously into an already magical setting. Between the futuristic architecture of the Cité des Sciences and the illuminated gardens, the light trail offers a timeless escape, far from the hustle and bustle of the streets.

Circuses, theatres, musicals… there is always something happening in the Paris Region.
