Comoedia is an independent cinema that broadens our horizons through its programming and events. The Comoedia is a privileged meeting place for films, their creators and audiences, who enjoy exceptional programming all year round: films d'auteur in VOST, documentaries, revivals and special programming for young audiences. Preview screenings, meetings with directors and actors, as well as meetings between spectators to share the most beautiful emotions. Comoedia is the venue for many festivals. A not-to-be-missed Thursday Party at the Bistrot with movie quizzes. Cinema in its original version.

A bold and imaginative opera. If, like many of us, you think that opera is not for you, think again and be astonished by the creations offered by an opera house that opens its doors and breaks the codes, having successfully renovated itself 30 years ago thanks to the architect Jean Nouvel. The Opéra de Lyon offers unique experiences, including the Opéra Underground program, which you can discover on the website. Lyrical and choreographic performances, concerts, world music, contemporary dance, screenings... in a wide variety of repertoires to broaden our horizons. Exciting seasons.

You can eat as much Sucre as you like! In fact, for 10 years now, our ears have been feasting on it and our feet have been shaking to the beat on the dancefloor set up on the roof of La Sucrière in Confluence. A place to exchange ideas and share the pleasure of a good sound. A meeting place for various artistic projects and events, concerts, festivals, club nights, aperitifs, brunches... A multi-faceted cultural venue that has become a temple to Lyon's nightlife. A rich and eclectic program for a "culture & club" address whose director is none other than Vincent Carry, organizer of Les Nuits Sonores. Le Sucre, at the cutting edge of trends.

Le Nombril du Monde is a little more than a simple theater-café: a living stage where talents can be born and blossom since more than 30 years. This is how the Nombril du Monde saw the birth of a certain Florence Foresti on stage... This café-theatre has a resident troupe of professional comedians, about fifteen, who play all the roles, from bar service to the stage. Two rooms (air-conditioned) to laugh all year long. The Nombril du Monde organizes comedy workshops. A short visit to the BistrO d'A Côté to chat with the comedians.

The Auditorium is the place to hear and see music on a grand scale. Indeed, it is one of Europe's largest classical music concert halls, a setting with perfect acoustics where the musicians of the Orchestre National de Lyon have been performing since 1975. Each season, 160 concerts are offered, accessible to the widest possible audience. Special sound workshops for children. Numerous events to share. The Auditorium houses the famous Cavaillé-Coll organ (1870).

The company, which set up 30 years ago in the huge theater of the 8th arrondissement in Bachut, was supposed to open workshops in the walls of the former Guimet Museum in the 6th. And then, the executive having changed, the Workshops will not go any more to Guimet but in a room closer to the House of the Dance. The shows have resumed in a magnificent hall where the greatest French and international companies perform. A program for all styles, from circus to opera and hip-hop.

In an alley in Old Lyon which has had an illustrious name for more than 25 years, the Boui Boui is, as it says, the "reference of café-theatres". And for everyone else, it is a must in the local comedy life. In a narrow room, you can really talk about proximity between the audience and the artists! A talent scouting room which has seen the debut of artists such as Anthony Kavanagh, Florence Foresti from Lyon, Jonathan Lambert... In short, it's "the Boui Boui to boui" for a game of fun with friends.

When was the last time you laughed at a show? Head for the Complexe, where you'll be looked after by a smiling team. Here, the show begins before the show, with a glass of sangria and a few tapas. You can eat, drink, chat and even fizz while waiting for the show to start, whether you're in the upstairs or downstairs room. Excellent programming with a strong comedic bent, to be followed on the Complexe website. Just one word of advice: make sure you book in advance, especially on weekends, as the Lyonnais really appreciate this venue. Every Saturday evening, stand-up at the Complexe Comedy Club.

In the same vein as the famous Boui-Boui, this café-theater under the direction of Stéphane Casez is in a way the cousin of the Croix-Rousse. Opened more than 10 years ago in a former bakery on the plateau, the Rideau Rouge has a small air-conditioned room where people like to come with friends to see a wide variety of shows, happily mixing 100% Lyon comedies and prestigious headliners. The Rideau Rouge has teamed up with the neighboring Café de la Soie to offer complete evenings of dinner and show with an all-inclusive formula. When the Red Curtain rises on the Croix-Rousse, laughter is guaranteed between friends.

Of course, we do not forget the only multiplex in the hyper-centre, in the heart of the peninsula, in two steps from Bellecour, with its 10 renovated rooms and 2 120 squares. A bit expensive, but we are in the multiplexes rates and all their benefits. Start with comfortable armchairs, giant screens, a digital Dolby sound (Atmos in a room), and the rooms are accessible for people with reduced mobility and have special equipment for people with hearing disabilities. Surmounted by a belfry adorned with its famous rooster, very rare example of Art Deco style in Lyon, it is an emblem of the cinema in the city of the Light brothers.

Espace Gerson, a name that sounds like an evidence when you think "shows" in Lyon. More than 30 years of existence for a room of 120 seats and stands with an unobstructed view on the stage, a very nice associative bar. An easily accessible stage in the old town of Lyon where about fifty comedy shows are usually performed every year. The Espace Gerson is a must of the Lyon's theater-café with the Plateaux de Gerson and young comedians who come to present a part of their show the last Mondays of each month.

Lulu has set up shop at Jean Macé. Lulu does us so much good, even more so in these times of "crises" in the plural, with its program of comedies full of madness to share. A colorful, cheerful theater, in the image of Renaud Gairard, the reopened head acrobat who decided to bring these walls back to life with a beautiful 180-seat auditorium and a table to enjoy along with the audience's comments. A place dedicated to comedy and laughter, to revivals of classic texts and to the most unusual creations, can only be salutary at a time when the performing arts need our support. Let's have fun with Lulu!

An ultramodern complex, ideally located in the international city on the edge of the Tête d'Or Park. You can also take a pleasant walk followed by a canvas. Some 3 000 places in 14 fully equipped rooms. Premières, major national and international outings, VOST and VF, meetings for children. A system that makes it possible not to queue at the cashier, and a restoration space. For the technical aspect: its DTS or Dolby stereo depending on the rooms. Friendly catering offer in the immediate vicinity for all tastes, especially in the cinema lobby with a modern brew.

Lyon's first private theater, launched on January 17, 1980, and run by Pascal Héritier and Bruno Davanzo. The current venue on avenue de Saxe can accommodate 371 spectators between two confinements, and is often sold out. Audiences who book their seats at the Théâtre de la Tête d'Or well in advance know they're in for a good laugh, with plenty of misunderstandings and enthusiastic actors - often stage stars. The venue specializes in boulevard comedy and vaudeville, not forgetting the chansonniers.

While we await the hypothetical reopening of a VTG castelet (not to be confused with a fast train) at the GHD (we like to leave you in the lurch when it comes to initials), back to square one at the Parc de la Tête d'Or, where it all began for this company over 75 years ago. Guignol is a monument to Lyon's heritage, with its famous puppets and colorful characters. A Lyonnais tradition to be respected by all ages, as the show offers different levels of interpretation, not all of them innocent... Guignol, it's so good!

To each his own, but Les Célestins remains the best theater in France when it comes to creating shows. A splendid Italian-style theater whose programming is second to none, the venue alone is well worth a visit. Shows on tour, and others created and staged at Les Célestins, all under the leadership of director Pierre-Yves Lenoir, assisted by Lise Gaillard. Some 200,000 spectators enjoy them every year, especially the in-house creations. Numerous initiatives to promote access to culture and theater for all audiences, including reasonable ticket prices, workshops and encounters. Indispensable Célestins.

It is the other multiplexes of the peninsula, located in the shopping and leisure area of Confluence. A brand new complex, the UGC Ciné Cité is made up of 14 rooms accessible for disabled people, particularly comfortable and well-equipped rooms. It is also a cinema that is not just a "blockbusters", which is a beautiful part of the quality avant-garde, independent cinema broadcast in original version, but also the "cult" movies of the big screen. You can also take advantage of the confluence or tram car park to make the cinema pleasant.

It is one of the very few venues to appear in our guide this season. Not that it hosts more shows than the others, but it is part of Lyon's heritage. What an incredible history this hall has, a marvel of metal architecture created by the Eiffel workshops and imagined by Tony Garnier! Formerly a cattle market, the hall has become a veritable cathedral of iron and glass built on a stone base. In "normal" times, the hall seats 5,000 and welcomes the biggest stars.

Dancing and dancing restaurant for over 20 years. The site has lost nothing of its exotic charm and has enjoyed expansion work very recently. For themed evenings, funerals of young girls, young men, birthday, catherinettes, weddings, student evenings, it offers its very vast space - 160 seated seats - and a dynamic team, @ in the evening animation. For karaoke, you'll have to choose from 5 000 references, yes you read, it's amazing!

Le Petit Théâtre led by Janine Berdin still presents young, dynamic and entertaining shows for the pleasure of all audiences. As its name indicates, this Little Pocket Theatre is not very large, but its human size facilitates rapprochement with all the public, especially school students who can analyze the game of the actors under all the seams and almost under their noses! Traditionally, each representation is followed by an exchange between actors and public in a friendly relationship.
