To celebrate its 40th anniversary, the Augustodunum sound and light show is pulling out all the stops in 2025. In addition to an exhibition of photos and costumes retracing the epic, two shows have been created. Les chevaux de légende, featuring dancing, sword-fighting and equestrian games, will take place in the town's ancient theater, in the open air. The second, Une nouvelle lumière, will take place inside Saint-Lazare Cathedral, illuminated by hundreds of spotlights. 150 actors and extras will plunge the audience back into the 2nd century.

Super spectacle comme chaque année. Je ne m'en lasse jamais. Je recommande à tout le monde.
Décors magnifiques, costumes authentiques et realistes, sons et lumières de qualité, tout celà dans un environnements splendides au coeur d'un théâtre antiques.

Beaux costumes, belle lumière, bon son, bonne musique, .... mais spectacle essentiellement narratif et donc inaudible pour des enfants, des touristes ou des étrangers. Un grand gâchis. On attend de l'action (les affiches laissent croire à la présence de romains ou de gaulois en arme, rien de tout cela), une seule action fugace, la course de char, heureusement ! Les loups ? aucun commentaire, aucune explication. était-ce des loups ? Merci au berger, à ses moutons et à son chien qui à eux seuls ont évités l'endormissement de 2000 personnes. Scénario à retravailler !

Everything to make a magnificent sight: superb decorations and costumes, 300 volunteers observers very involved, a grandiose setting, large technical paths,...
Unfortunately mayonnaise does not take! The filmmakers a little confused and text on a soundtrack is preregistered especially far too; and what makes the actors and observers during this time, they agitate arms in all senses history to furnish the scene.
While exaggerating a little, I had the impression to attend classes history scenarized more than a real sound and light.
Unfortunately, because you can watch some superb scenes such as a course of chariots or gladiatorial combats.
