An exceptional phenomenon… over Dijon!
Usually found in polar regions, these luminous green and violet veils have amazed the entire area. Residents from Beaune to Dijon captured this celestial dance that turned the night into a magical show.
The reason? A particularly powerful solar flare earlier this week. The Sun, a bit restless lately, sent a stream of energy-charged particles toward Earth. When they meet our atmosphere, they create this hypnotic illumination known as the northern lights.

Our tips to maximize your chances tonight
Space weather specialists confirm that a new display is possible from Wednesday night to Thursday. There’s no exact time (nature doesn’t make appointments), but one thing’s for sure: you’ll want to look up to the north as soon as night falls.
Get away from the city lights: the light pollution from Dijon could spoil the show. Head to the heights of Talant, the fields of Daix, or the countryside toward Messigny-et-Vantoux for a clear sky. Bring a tripod or place your phone on a stable surface for photos. The "night" mode can sometimes capture what the eye misses. And most importantly, be patient. The northern lights like to keep you waiting.
A moment suspended over Burgundy
If the magic happens again tonight, the people of Dijon will a... ```nt right à a scene worthy of the Great North, without leaving their department. A rarity, almost a gift from heaven, to savor with stars in their eyes.
So, tonight, forget Netflix and cozy nights in: the most beautiful show is playing up there, in the sky of Côte-d’Or.
