Bordeaux Cathedral: Immersive Sound and Light – LUMINISCENCE
The 360° immersive show that combines history, video mapping and live music is back at the Bordeaux Cathedral with a new spectacular work: The Celestial Odyssey.
1,000,000 spectators have already passed through its doors. Will you be the next?
The Celestial Odyssey, the new 2025 show:
- 3D video mapping: the 3-dimensional projections transform the architecture and completely reinvent the space, from the base of the pillars to the tops of the vaults.
- Live music: the celestial voices of the Chœur Voyageur accompany live the soundtrack performed by the grand Slovak Symphony Orchestra, composed of more than 70 musicians and singers.
- Story: the cathedral comes to life and tells you how the stars breathe life into stone. Discover the extraordinary destiny of Bordeaux: from its Roman origins, through the marriage of Eleanor, Duchess of Aquitaine, up to its contemporary cultural influence.
- A monument of stone and silence, the cathedral once again opens up to the light of the story. But this time, something has changed.
- An ancient murmur crosses the nave... A figure steps forward... The walls come to life, the stained glass windows whisper, the music soars - a new show begins.
- A unique sensory journey, where light and music reveal what has kept the heart of the cathedral beating for centuries...
