A "Féerie des Lumières" for a magical evening
On July 31, the seafront lit up for a magical evening featuring a parade, a drone show and a popular public ball.

The town offered an enchanted interlude to its residents and visitors. On July 31, a symbolic date marking the crossover between July and August holidaymakers, the seaside resort dressed up in its finest attire for "La féerie des lumières".
More than just a simple summer event, the Municipality plunged residents into a modern fairy tale universe. It was a timeless experience where light, music and conviviality were the key words of a memorable evening on the seafront.
Between creativity and sharing
The festivities began in a playful and family-friendly atmosphere. The waters of Le Lavandou became the stage for a competition as unusual as it was joyful with the OFNI race. These "Obscure Floating Non-identified Objects", fruits of the overflowing imagination of their creators, set off in a friendly regatta where audacity and humor mattered far more than speed. A spectacle that caused many bursts of laughter on the quays.
After these nautical emotions, a large afternoon snack and aperitif was offered on the forecourt of the Hôtel de Ville. This moment of sharing was a convivial prelude to the magic of the evening and an opportunity for families and friends to gather in the heart of the village before nightfall.
An evening under a shower of stars
At dusk, the magic began when a large luminous parade set off along the seafront. Allegorical floats, sparkling with a thousand lights, paraded in a procession of lights and spellbinding music, transporting young and old into a dreamlike world.
The highlight of the evening was a grand drone show. Like a silent and poetic aerial ballet, hundreds of luminous drones rose into the sky to draw spectacular figures and colorful frescoes above the sea.
Finally, the party continued with a large popular ball hosted by the orchestra "GoldStar". The iconic pétanque court was transformed into an open-air dance floor, inviting all generations to celebrate summer to the rhythm of a lively repertoire.
