Wanderings – An immersive musical and artistic stroll organized by the association Histoires de musique

Histoires de Musique invites you to experience an immersive artistic experience where music, dance, theater and heritage intertwine on an emblematic site in the heart of Neuchâtel, the Palais Dupeyrou.

Far from traditional formats, this stroll is punctuated by four artistic bubbles offering distinctive and multidisciplinary performances. The common thread is held by an actor, who enriches the stroll by sharing anecdotes and historical details about this part of the city.

Designed for small groups of spectators, Déambulations fosters a unique proximity between the artists and the public by offering a moment suspended in an intimate and warm atmosphere.
