The Lille European Metropolis has decided to once again support the projects developed in the metropolitan area by lille3000 on the occasion of Utopia.
Internationally renowned artists will be invited to Lille and throughout the metropolitan area to share their vision on the theme of nature. Flagship venues and the maisons Folie have once again responded to participate in Utopia.
Devised in collaboration with different teams, festive walks, the “Caps”, will be offered to the public as means of discovering artists while exploring specific places, country roads, a wood, the banks of the Deûle, etc.
As in previous editions, Utopia will be an opportunity to promote key events taking place in the towns and villages throughout the metropolitan area: the Dimanches du Barœul, Hem en Fête, the Dimanches au bord de l’eau in Lambersart, Tourcoing plage, the Nieulles festival in Armentières, Rendez-vous au Canal in Roubaix, the Fête de l’arbre in Sequedin, Halluin plage, the nature week in Loos, the village festival in Beaucamps-Ligny, and so on.
