Experience Immersion: LUMINISCENCE in Nice with AMMI Hotels

An Immersive Experience in the Heart of Nice

Nice, the capital of the French Riviera, is much more than a seaside destination: it’s a city of art, light, and culture. Between its famous Promenade des Anglais, colorful façades, and majestic basilica, Nice offers an atmosphere where beauty takes on countless forms.
And this year, an extraordinary event is lighting up the city: LUMINISCENCE, a spectacular immersive experience installed inside the Notre-Dame de l’Assomption Basilica, right in the city center.

To make this unforgettable artistic interlude even more special, the AMMI Hotels group, which includes five properties located in the heart of Nice, invites you to enjoy a stay combining comfort, convenience, and visual emotion.

 

What is LUMINISCENCE in Nice?

LUMINISCENCE is a 360° immersive show that brings new life to the grand architecture of the Notre-Dame de l’Assomption Basilica.
Thanks to video mapping, light effects, and an enchanting soundtrack, visitors are transported into a one-of-a-kind sensory and spiritual journey.

Venue and Practical Information
