This week, the blog is heading to Lyon for the Nuits Sonores festival. This electronic music festival has taken place annually in Lyon in May since 2002 and will therefore be celebrating its 10th anniversary with this 2012 edition.

This year, the festival runs from today, Wednesday the 16th, through Sunday, May 20th, 2012.

  • The Nuits Sonores Village features musical brunches, workshops, and artist showcases.
