La Nuit Blanche, the French term which literally means White Night or All-Nighter, is an annual night-time art festival that started in the city of Nantes by its former mayor Jean-Marc Ayrault to establish a "contemporary patrimony" from 6 pm till 6 am with artists from six major cities over 6 years like Barcelona (1991), St. Petersburg (1991), Buenos Aires (1992), Naples (1993), Cairo (1994) and Havana (1995). This year will mark the 10th year of the White Night in Paris and it will be on Saturday, October 1st. If you are in Paris next weekend, you are definitely in for a treat! So don't miss out and we look forward to bumping into you at all those places!
For those of you who are still not sure what the White Night is, here is an old video from a previous edition that shows you what the night is all about:
