The Festival of Lights is an international event renowned for its temporary light installations during which the city is metamorphosed for four magical evenings, reconnecting with a popular tradition dating back to 1852.
It is a 30+ years long festival which attracts thousands of tourists. Over the years it has become a must-visit event on the Côte d’Opale coast. For more than a week, wind and sea enthusiasts can admire many giant and spectacular kites, each with its own originality.
