It's a festive and delicious event! For music lovers, June sees the return of the Nuits de Fourvière, with its powerful vibrations that could shake the Gallo-Roman theatre to the core. It's a not-to-be-missed event that signals the start of summer and its unforgettable nightlife. Did you say memorable evenings? Woodstower hasn't said its last word. This last summer festival is back to light up the Miribel-Jonage park with an eclectic programme for young and old. As for young people, the free Tout l'monde dehors festival will be brightening up your summers with shows of all kinds: theatre, cinema, music, dance... A real firework display for the eyes to match Lyon's 14 July.
