A chance to discover the museum from a cultural, musical and festive perspective, just outside Paris.

Radio Nova takes over the Salle des Huit Colonnes for a night of DJ sets

The music event takes place in the Hall of Eight Columns, transformed into a festive space for the occasion. Radio Nova is bringing its Nova Danse format to the venue, with two artists behind the decks from 7:30 p.m. to 11:30 p.m.

  • Toots, Radio Nova’s resident DJ, kicks off the night with an eclectic musical selection.

A focus on AI: exhibition, virtual reality and interactive experiences

The Mode avion evening also accompanies the temporary exhibition “Aiming for AI”, on view from October 15, 2026, to June 27, 2027, in the Interwar Hall. This educational, interactive exhibition explores the role of artificial intelligence in decision-making, planning and cyberdefense.

Several activities allow visitors to explore these themes in greater depth during the evening:

  • The “Destination AI” exhibition: open from 7:30 p.m. to 11:30 p.m., subject to availability.
  • A machine learning workshop: a 15-minute introduction using the game of NIM, offered every 20 minutes from 7:30 p.m. to 9:30 p.m.
  • Per Aspera VR with SHAM Spectacles: a virtual reality experience in which participants take on the role of an artificial intelligence tasked with turning Mars into a habitable environment, from 7:30 p.m. to 9:30 p.m.
  • An AI-created mocktail: with ANcuisine, visitors enter their tastes, impressions or memories to receive a personalized non-alcoholic cocktail recipe. Price: €12.50; free for holders of the first 150 tickets purchased, upon presentation of the voucher provided at the reception desk.

An art installation and a debate on artificial intelligence

The program also includes “NØEMA”, a work by Jeanne Morel and Paul Marlier presented in the Grande Guerre hall from 7:30 p.m. to 11:30 p.m. The piece combines weightless dance, biometric data collected during parabolic flights, and artificial intelligence. It explores how the body’s movements and emotions can be translated into visual forms.

Another highlight of the evening: “The Question of the Evening”, taking place at the media library from 8 to 9:30 p.m. Two specialists will discuss a pressing question: can we still trust information sources in the age of artificial intelligence? The hour-long talk will be followed by 30 minutes of discussion with the audience. Admission is included in the evening ticket, subject to availability.

An evening event in the historic setting of the Musée de l’Air et de l’Espace

Located on the grounds of Paris-Le Bourget Airport, the Musée de l’Air et de l’Espace provides a unique setting for this program, which brings together music, artistic creation and technological innovation. The Salle des Huit Colonnes hosts the DJ sets, while the Interwar Hall and other spaces used for the event explore the links between artificial intelligence, aviation and space exploration.
