Built in the 1930s on the industrial docks of Lyon Confluence, this former warehouse is enjoying a second life at the age of 80. After hosting Les Nuits Sonores for many years, it now hosts the Lyon Contemporary Art Biennale, one of the most important in Europe, as well as major international temporary exhibitions and corporate events.

Now completely renovated, while retaining its industrial character, it has become the ‘figurehead’ of the new Lyon Confluence district, a former working-class neighbourhood that is now home to the headquarters of major communications companies and institutions, trendy restaurants, lively bars, art galleries and design shops.

With a surface area of 6,500 m² entrusted to the GL Events group, including 3,800 m² of event space, 1,700 m² of space for artistic and cultural activities, and a bar club, La Sucrière aims to become a venue that combines culture, creativity and communication with a friendly atmosphere, giving it a unique character, following the example of major European capitals such as London, Madrid and Berlin.
