Win Tickets to The AURA Invalides Immersive Show

AURA Invalides is an immersive night-time experience inside the Dôme des Invalides in Paris, where light, music, and monumental architecture all perform together. After the monument closes to the public, visitors move through the chapels around Napoleon I’s tomb while the interior is transformed by large-scale video mapping, spatialised orchestral sound, and dramatic lighting effects that ripple up to the painted dome above. The 50-minute show is structured in three “movements” – creation, memory, and elevation – so you’re not just watching pretty projections, you’re travelling through the building’s history, from Louis XIV and the construction of the royal chapel to the legacy of France’s military heroes. It feels part cathedral, part art installation, part time machine, and it lets you see one of Paris’s most iconic landmarks in a completely different way.
