CELESTE METZ

CELESTE - THE INVISIBLE WORLDS
NEW SHOW!

CÉLESTE is an immersive video mapping show that pushes the boundaries of architecture and light to offer a poetic and metaphysical experience.

This project unfolds within the Temple Neuf in Metz, exploring the relationship between matter and the invisible, history and the timeless through five acts. Light becomes a vehicle for emotion and reflection, guiding the audience through a transformation of space and perception.

Under the artistic direction of Jérémie Bellot, CÉLESTE transforms the Temple Neuf into a place of luminous and poetic expression. The subtle interplay between light and architecture explores universal themes such as memory, spiritual elevation and the communion between humanity and the universe.

The show creates a dialogue between past and present, the material and the spiritual, turning the architecture of the Temple into a living canvas. Each beam of light sculpts the space and transforms the monument, immersing the audience in a sensory and introspective experience that prompts profound questions about time, memory and the invisible.

⚠ TRAFFIC & PARKING INFORMATION - CHRISTMAS MARKET PERIOD

During the winter season, and particularly during the Metz Christmas Market (from late November to late December), visitor numbers in the city centre are very high. Car parks near the Temple Neuf fill up quickly, especially at weekends and in the late afternoon.

We strongly recommend allowing extra time for your journey and arriving 15 minutes before the start of your show to find a parking space and make your way to the venue.
