Back to Light and Origins
Two years after the resounding success of its first edition, LUMINISCENCE is once again taking over the majestic Saint-André Cathedral with a promise: to make its ancient stones vibrate once more to the rhythm of a luminous and poetic tale. The immersive 360° show is back from September 26 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 brought the show to the most beautiful cathedrals in France, has gathered over 500,000 spectators.

A brand new creation: The Celestial Odyssey
Designed especially for this re-edition, The Celestial Odyssey invites spectators to step into the world of the invisible. Thanks to a high-precision 3D projection technology and an enhanced three-dimensional sound system featuring a live choir, the show offers a complete immersion into a visual and sensory story.
The nave of the cathedral transforms into a theater of light, sound, and emotions, rethinking the codes of heritage visits. “Heritage should not only be seen, but felt,” shares Romain Sarfati, co-founder of Luminiscence. “We hope to offer everyone a moment suspended in time, intimate, united.”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 supportive act for heritage. Over €400,000 has already been donated towards 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 illuminated, both literally and figuratively.
