Seasonal festivities
Last updated date : 20/05/2025
On 27, 28 and 29 June 2025, some 300 events reveal the rivers from a historical, cultural, scientific, sports or ecological point of view. They’re organised across three main neighbourhoods, Confluence, Guillotière and Île Barbe by over a hundred local stakeholders: non-profits, artists, municipal cultural institutions, corporate patrons, and residents. There’s a vast programme, combining family-friendly, artistic and sports activities focusing on the theme of Lyon’s rivers.
