Les Coteaux de la Citadelle presents their nocturnal show in Liège, 6 October 2018

Liège, the economic capital of Wallonia, bordering the Meuse, is famous for its religious patrimony, the Royal Opera, its Art Nouveau houses and numerous green spaces. It also has been welcoming since 24 years, the Coteaux de la Citadelle, an event of international scope. And during this exceptional evening the « City of Lights » truly lives up to its surname.

As soon as night falls, the great light revelry unveils its small streets and inner courts, its stairways and illuminated terraces in a joyful atmosphere. This outdoor nocturnal concept offers the opportunity of strolling around the city and discovering original venues, lit by 20000 candles, as well as luminous interventions, all punctuated by a great number of musical or theatrical animations.
