Back to the Light and the Sources
Two years after the resounding success of its first edition, LUMINISCENCE is reinvesting the majestic Saint-André Cathedral with a promise: to once again make its ancient stones resonate to the rhythm of a luminous and poetic tale. The immersive 360° show returns from September 20 to November 22, 2025.
This event marks a symbolic return to Bordeaux, the birthplace of the project, which has become a national reference for heritage staging in just two years. The tour, which has taken the show to the most beautiful cathedrals in France, has brought together over 500,000 spectators.

A Unique Creation: The Celestial Odyssey
Created especially for this re-edition, The Celestial Odyssey invites viewers to cross the threshold into the invisible. Thanks to a high-precision 3D projection technology and an enhanced three-dimensional sound system complemented by a live choir, the show offers a complete dive into a visual and sensory narrative.
The nave of the cathedral transforms into a theater of light, sound, and emotions, rethinking the codes of heritage visits. “The heritage should not only be seen, but felt,” shares Romain Sarfati, co-founder of Luminiscence. “We hope to provide everyone with a suspended, intimate, and united moment.”verse»

A committed program in favor of heritage
Created in 2023 by the company Lotchi, LUMINISCENCE is not just a show: it’s also a way to support heritage. Over €400,000 has already been donated for the restoration of the buildings that hosted the performances.
The Saint-André Cathedral, a gothic masterpiece listed as a UNESCO World Heritage site, is once again brought to light, both literally and figuratively.
