The Luminous Odyssey at Parc Floral:
a magical journey under the stars
When night falls over Parc Floral, the magic begins. Until January 19, the Luminous Odyssey transforms the park’s 35 hectares into a trail dotted with monumental light sculptures. This year, you’ll travel to the four corners of the world — from the polar ice caps to the African savannah, with a stop in Japan and its samurai.
The highlight of the show? A spectacular recreation of the Northern Lights illuminating the sky. Add to that a drone show (weather permitting), magic performances on stage at 6:30 pm, 7:30 pm, 8:30 pm and 9 pm, and an artist creating giant bubbles.
Bundle up well: wonder is guaranteed, but so are the winter temperatures.
