The 29th and 30th August, the Nuit des Choeurs (Night of Choirs) will take over the ruins of the Villers Abbey in Villers-la-Ville, offering visitors an entirely unique evening of glamour!
Returning for its 15th edition, the Nuit des Choeurs will be offering us the perfect combination of music and wonder with a show alternating between six vocal ensembles. Known for being the most beautiful concert-promenade in the Kingdom, the public have never disappointed with music as prestigious as its authors, crowned by a collective crescendo accompanied by a fantastic fireworks display.
