Institut Grand Festif

Step inside, dip your hand into the great bowl of life, let the Curly Saint melt on your tongue, take a deep breath, and you’ll be entering the heart of the Institut Grand Festif’s experimental laboratory for an adventure whose outcome is anyone’s guess.

Board at the Gare Saint-Sauveur and the space-time journey will take you from the prehistoric beginnings of the nouba to the most cosmic horizons of the shared party experience.

Imbued with the afterglow of a rich festive mythology, you’ll be the confetti at the heart of a luminous whirlwind, you’ll be the breath, the rhythmic pulse and the melody. Finally, you’ll shed the shrouds that weigh down your body (and your soul) to transform yourself into a strobe light, a wild animal of the dancefloor, a monster with false eyelashes from the farthest reaches of time, a magnificent child of the Great Festivities, a transistor of love, an infinite entertainer.

As well as your unquenchable appetite for joy and your determination, you’ll benefit from cutting-edge equipment, supplied by our research teams, to get you through the different spaces you’ll encounter on your quest.

Your contribution to the scientifestives advances underway is priceless.
