Address
65 Rue Challemel Lacour,
69007 Lyon
A former jewel of industry at the heart of Lyon's labor history, the Fagor-Brandt household appliance factory, located in the Gerland district of Lyon, extended over a 4.5 hectare site (110,000 m² including 73,000 m² of covered buildings), today partially in rehabilitation. If, at the beginning of the 1980s, the factory still employed 1,800 workers, they were just under 400 in the 2000s. Production was gradually relocated from 2005 and the factory was sold to SITL, then to Cenntro Motors in 2010. As it began its conversion into the production of electric cars, the plant declined until its closure in 2015.
The site, currently fallow over 29,000 m2, now hosts cultural events such as the Nuits Sonores since 2017, the Lyon Street Food Festival, the Dance and Contemporary Art Biennale.

Tamara Cubas – Multitud
Usines Fagor
More than 60 dancers move into public space. But this is not about crowd movements: Multitud renders perceptible the organic bonds between bodies, and examines our capacity to affect and be affected.
Usines Fagor
The Out of This World adventure immerses us sceno- and choreographically in a ghostly utopia. To see our world change, why not begin by imagining new societies?
