5 ~ 8 déc 2014 | lyo n | fetedeslumieres.lyon.fr Route 2: Excitement from Bellecour to Confluence Are you looking for some unforgettable experiences? Follow your nose and join in the evening’s excitement on the southern end of the Lyon peninsula! On the program: discoveries, shows, projections, travel through time and space and relaxation to the music of the Concert de l’Hostel Dieu. SOME ADVICE BEFORE YOU LEAVE: For cozy comfort at the Festival of Lights: As you can well imagine, it’s cold in winter in Lyon, and you’ll often have to stand in place. To cope with possible bad weather and cover lots of kilometers, forget about being a fashion plate: put on your earmuffs, parka, mittens and gloves and, above all, trade your high-heels for a pair of all-terrain boots! For a Festival of Lights without stress: prefer Sunday, December 7, and Monday, December 8, for an easier flow, especially if your children are with you on this excursion. For a traditional Festival of Lights: If you are a resident of Lyon, put candles in the windows of your home, your workplace and your school on Monday, December 8, to perpetuate this Lyon tradition. Remember that this route may be crowded. If you have young children, avoid taking them along on Friday and Saturday evenings. During the entire Festival, leave your stroller at home and choose a baby backpack instead. Please feel free to pass on this advice to everyone who will be accompanying you on your exploration. To reach the point of departure, take Metro Line D/A to the Bellecour stop Warning: TCL implements extensive safety precautions in this heavily traveled area.
