Even if this weekend is “back to normal”, it promises to be just as rich in events as the previous one. Arts in all its forms, travel, and music: some examples of what awaits you this weekend in Lyon.
The International Contemporary Art Fair (from June 10 to 12)
After a two-year break, the Contemporary Art Fair organized by Art3f returns this year. The public is invited to the prestigious room of the Halle Tony Garnier, to discover more than 3000 works. The event is intended to be convivial for his return. All art lovers and the curious are invited to meet more than 200 artists who exhibit. Many forms of art will be there: pop art, art brut, graffiti, expressionism, etc. What satisfy and surprise the spectators of the show!
To open the show, a vernissage is organized on Friday at 6 p.m., where it will be possible to see the works for the first time to the rhythm of a musical formation.
Plants for all (June 9-10)
Want exoticism? The Confluence shopping center is home to the ephemeral “Plants for all” store. The goal of this shop: to show that having a green thumb is easier than you think. This weekend you will be able to enjoy a wide selection of plants (heart leaf, Madagascar dragon tree, etc.) at low prices (2, 5 or 10€).
Most : the team will be at your disposal to advise you best according to your desires and your skills.

Consular holidays (June 11 and 12)
The City of Lyon invites us to travel without moving from Place Bellecour this weekend. Born two decades ago, the consular celebrations are a way for the city to shine internationally. This year the theme of the festival is culture. Lyonnais will be invited to travel thanks to artistic performances such as Turkish folk dances or flamenco.
The terrace of the ECAM festival (June 11 and 12)
A desire to party with a breathtaking view of Lyon? “The ECAM terrace” is the perfect event! Nestled at the top of Old Lyon, this festival will take place on the hill of Fourvière, 200 meters above sea level. For the seventh time, the engineering school once again organized a festive weekend to celebrate the end of the academic year. On the program, activities around music (like a giant Blind Test) in the afternoon. In the evening, electro DJ sets with DJ Paula Tape or Mafalda.
