The 10th edition of the Lumière festival will be held from Saturday 13 to Sunday 21 October in Lyon. Last year, 171,000 festivalgoers attended 396 screenings in 60 venues in the Lyon Metropolis.

The spirit of the festival:

Created in 2009 by the Institut Lumière, the festival has become one of the largest international festivals of classic cinema. Once a year in Lyon, the birthplace of the Cinematograph, the cinema world celebrates the vitality and memory of film, taking a contemporary journey through works of the past (restored films, retrospectives, tributes...). Thanks to all the participating theaters, the festival shines across Lyon and its surrounding area, reaching a wide audience.

396 screenings, 177 films, in 24 municipalities of the metropolis of Lyon.
Screenings introduced by actors, filmmakers, historians, film critics, and by our "Lumière Ambassadors."
