Exhibition "Dancing" at the Cité des Sciences et de l'Industrie: An Immersive and Family-Friendly Experience

A Playful Exploration of Dance for All

"Dancing" is not just an exhibition; it invites both young and old to move, interact, and be carried away by the rhythm. Whether you are a beginner or a dance enthusiast, the experience is designed to engage every visitor. The goal is to get the body moving, engage the mind, and create a connection between generations. Throughout the visit, you will traverse different spaces where you will be both a spectator and an actor in the dance.

Children, accompanied by their families or friends, can discover simple movements such as spinning, jumping, walking, or meeting others. These seemingly trivial actions are actually at the heart of dance and help to understand how this universal form of expression aids in developing coordination and exploring space.

Visitors won’t just watch performances; they will be invited to dance themselves through interactive setups designed with professional choreographers. These installations allow you to explore the basics of different dance styles and techniques from various cultures. It’s a complete immersion into the world of this art form that will spark curiosity in everyone.

A Collective Dance for All Ages

One of the highlights of the "Dancing" exhibition is the collective dance organized every 30 minutes. This unique moment offers visitors the chance to learn three different dances. It’s an activity that will appeal to both young and old, allowing everyone to participate in a festive and friendly moment. This dance is a true journey through eras and cultures, where dance styles are as diverse as the history they represent. You will have the opportunity to learn a few steps, observe others, and most importantly, have fun moving to the rhythm of the music.
