Thank you to everyone—festivalgoers, professionals, partners, and artists!

More than 252,000 festivalgoers joined us for this wonderful edition, marked by 133 performances across 57 venues in the Lyon metropolitan area and the Auvergne–Rhône-Alpes region; 40 shows, including 24 creations and French premieres; 13 evenings at Club Bingo; and at Les Grandes Locos.

We’re delighted to have shared these moments of excitement and dance with you—in theaters, in the streets and squares of Greater Lyon, and on the dance floor at the Club Bingo nights.

This edition will run from September to December 2026.
