Venues

This now marks the third edition in which Nuits sonores has set up its Days and Closing Day at Les Grandes Locos, a former SNCF technical center located in La Mulatière. With its towering halls and mechanical remnants, the site once again hosts four stages offering different experiences, and for five days becomes a fully fledged place of life.

Nuits sonores is retaining the format of the 2025 Night program this year, offering an enhanced experience in an expanded version of La Sucrière. Within this large, unique venue, the Nights will unfold across three stages conceived as spaces with distinct experiences, between which festivalgoers can wander: a central 360° dancefloor, an intimate club, and an immersive live space, Le Sucre.

A gem of Lyon’s Baroque architecture built in the 17th century, the Chapelle de la Trinité—deconsecrated for a hundred years—has been a concert venue since 2024, dedicated to dialogue between Baroque and contemporary music. Conceived as a laboratory for new creative experiences as part of a project led by the Lyon Trinité Musique association (which brings together Le Concert de l’Hostel Dieu and Superspectives), La Trinité will host a special concert by artist Kali Malone for Nuits sonores.

Sublime, subtle, subversive, subjective, substantial, subcultural: Les SUBS take shape in the plural—that’s what makes them so unique. This historic venue in the history of Nuits sonores is once again opening its doors to us for two performances of the immersive show Si me ves ir con todo, es porque a la noche lloro by Swiss-Guatemalan artist Baby Volcano.

HEAT is a place for sharing and connection, bringing together and uniting a community of restaurateurs, and offering a cultural program each season. On the occasion of Nuits sonores, the food hall takes over the adjacent public space and transforms itself to host the Open Air events, the festival’s free programs.
