Light Cycles, a trail of light in the heart of the Parc de la Villette in Paris this autumn

Every year, during the autumn-winter season, light festivals illuminate Paris and the Île-de-France region with a variety of itineraries. At the Parc de la Villette, for example, we have been able to discover more artistic and contemporary installations, from Lumières!, the free trail, to Art In The Nature , which paid tribute to the works of Salvador Dali in a more surrealist atmosphere.

This autumn, Light Cycles will take over with a new nocturnal itinerary in a spirit that promises to keep the arty vibe alive. The date is set for October 31, 2025, in this famous park in the 19th arrondissement of Paris. This travelling exhibition invites us to discover 5 artistic installations whose titles arouse our curiosity: "Invisible", "Forest Frequencies", "The Hearth", "Crystal Grove" and "Into the Sunset".
