Immersion Fagor

2023

Immersion Fagor [Teaser]
Biennale de la danse de Lyon (https://www.youtube.com/@biennaledeladanselyon)

For the last time, the Biennale de la danse is taking over the Usines Fagor to make it the convivial, creative and festive hub of the festival. Audiences, amateurs, artists, professionals, families and friends can meet there to talk, drink and eat – and, of course, to be immersed in all forms of dance, courtesy of an artistic pathway through the venue’s many spaces that encompasses shows, participatory projects, workshops, talks, discussions and original events.

Fagor Immersion also invites you to get together at weekends at Club Bingo to dance and party!

We regret to inform you that technical issues have forced us to cancel the Still Bodies exhibition initially scheduled as part of the Usines Fagor programme.

Two immersions

  • Évènement

Ballroom immersion with the Legendary Vinii Revlon – Fight For Your Rights Ball

Usines Fagor

Ballroom originated in the trans and racialised communities, and celebrates all identities. Vinii Revlon, a voguing legend, immerses us in this flamboyant culture, and honours the bodies that fight relentlessly for their rights.

  • Immersion Fagor

Collectif FAIR-E – UP/DOWN/LEFT/RIGHT/TWIST – Immersion hip hop

Usines Fagor

From the world of hip hop and its influence, the choreographers Bouside Ait Atmane, Iffra Dia, Linda Hayford and Saïdo Lehlouh, united under the aegis of the FAIR-E collective, respond to the invitation of the Biennale de la danse to offer a genuine and original choreographic immersion in the Usines Fagor.
