Lyon covers every format. For a convention, the Centre de Congrès de Lyon, at the Cité Internationale, lines up three auditoriums of 300, 900 and 3,000 seats and 8,400 m² of single-level exhibition space. For a staged evening, La Sucrière, a former warehouse on the banks of the Saône at Confluence, welcomes up to 2,000 guests for a gala dinner and 3,000 for a cocktail reception, with riverbanks that can be hired exclusively. For a signature format, the Musée des Confluences opens eight event spaces on exclusive hire once it closes, and the InterContinental Lyon Hôtel-Dieu offers its 1,500 m² conference centre beneath the eighteenth-century dome. For very large capacities, the Halle Tony Garnier offers the largest column-free covered surface in Europe.
The objection is fair, and the answer has two parts. First, the budget. For a comparable scope, working with us often costs the same as a local provider: the difference is not the price, it is the artistic direction and a technical crew we run in-house rather than subcontract. Second, knowledge of the ground: we have known Lyon for many years, its venues, their real capacities and their build constraints, from the Cité Internationale to Confluence and the Presqu'île. We cover Lyon and the whole Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region, and our duplex set-up connects several cities live for hybrid formats.
Set design sits at the heart of our craft. Every event becomes a singular experience through bespoke sets and immersive staging. Our set designers work from your needs, your visual identity and the story you want to tell. We begin with a strategic study: based on your messages and your budget, we build the concepts that fit best. Nothing is copied and pasted, every project is an original creation.
Lyon Part-Dieu is less than two hours from Paris Gare de Lyon, with around thirty trains a day. As Part-Dieu is the second business district in France, that centrality makes it possible to gather teams coming from Paris, Marseille or Bordeaux with no extra overnight stay. Lyon-Saint Exupéry airport is connected to Part-Dieu in under thirty minutes by the Rhônexpress shuttle, and its TGV station is two minutes from the terminals.
Our technical production team is in-house, which changes everything when something goes wrong. Before every project we draw up a precise intervention schedule, and our experienced teams step in immediately if a problem arises. That ability to bring alternative solutions into play in real time is one of the reasons the LVMH, EssilorLuxottica and Louis Vuitton groups have trusted us for several years.
Every collaboration begins with a listening phase, and it is Hicham, the founder, who attends the first meeting. We then design a detailed proposal covering creative ideas and technical solutions. Once it is approved, our team takes charge of the entire event, from coordinating suppliers to running the show on the day, keeping you informed at every stage.
