The Biot Art Nocturnes return for their 8th edition, from July 21 to August 18, 2022, every Thursday, from 6:00 PM to 11:30 PM. The unmissable Thursday night event on the French Riviera!
The Nocturnes in Biot, organized by the Association of Merchants, Craftsmen, and Liberal Professions of Biot (C.A.P.L.), have been around for several years. On this occasion, Biot becomes an open-air art gallery, making art fun and accessible to all: live artistic demonstrations, street arts, concerts, parades, theater, children’s workshops, cultural visits, etc.
Additionally, shops stay open late, allowing visitors to stroll through the village’s streets and enjoy the mild summer evenings. Remember to book your spot on the terrace with the village’s restaurateurs, and for those who prefer takeout, you will also find something to your liking.
Program Highlights:
- In Rue St Sébastien from 6:00 PM to 11:30 PM, you can admire an open-air art gallery. More than twenty painters, sculptors, glassmakers, and ceramists from Biot will exhibit their works. A beautiful mix of styles and materials.
