Nuits sonores Lab 2026

Nuits Sonores is coming with its discourse programme, Nuits Sonores Lab, powered by the European Lab platform.

For four days, from 13 to 17 May, through workshops, panel discussions, masterclasses and a radio corner, Nuits Sonores Lab will explore the notion of independence in the face of the threats faced by cultural and media ecosystems across Europe.

By bringing together thinkers, artists, activists, authors, collectives and media outlets, Nuits Sonores Lab aims to create a space for reflection at the heart of the festival, to consider and imagine alternatives for the independence of Europe's cultural and democratic sectors.
