This square was created in partnership with the City of Lyon, on the occasion of the Festival of Lights.
It brings together the city's emblematic monuments, from the Fourvière Basilica to the Palais des Beaux Arts, including the Théâtre des Célestins and the Hôtel de Ville.
The Festival of Lights is a popular event held every year in Lyon at the beginning of December. It originates from a tradition dating back to 1852, during which the people of Lyon placed candles in their windows.
Today, it has become a major artistic festival, where light installations transform the city for several evenings.
