Vibrations, Cour D'honneur Du Palais Des Papes

Reviewed By Regislive - Buffalo, United States

We found this by accident...and somehow we got in at less than half price. I would try buying the tickets maybe 20 minutes before the show starts. We really had no idea what to expect. Anyhow this was so amazing. Basically you stand or can sit for about 45 minutes. The floor will vibrate (hence Vibrations for the name) as the music is playing. Basically a scene will play out on the walls for about five minutes and then another scene will start. They are all so amazing and enjoyable. The music is really really good. At times people were dancing around the floor, ourselves included. I cannot say how much of an unexpected surprise this was. At the end we wanted more! We were both so energized and smiling so much after this. Honestly this was one of the most fun things we did on our entire vacation. Oh and you do not need to understand French there is very little talking going on. It is all mostly visual and music. Oh and the show is literally 360 degrees. That's why we stood as there the show is surrounding you. I found it interesting to think once the Popes lived here and now it is home to a light show. LOL If you want to know more please ask...I just don't want to ruin it for anyone.

Nice Carnival

Drawn by the mild Riviera winters, around a million people flock to the Nice carnival each year. It runs a full fortnight in late February and is the biggest Mardi Gras bash in the South of France — in fact, one of the biggest carnivals in the world. Crowds line Nice’s famous coastal boulevard, the Promenade des Anglais, to see the grand parade of colorful floats and fight for the early spring blooms that fly through the air as part of the festival’s legendary 'battle of flowers.'

Extremely happy, funny, spectacular carnaval of the Evening! Actually my very first one :) It is said that after Rio, Venice, the third in terms of costumes, lightening, all kind of expenses, it's Nice which is coming on the third! I entered free without paying, since I was disguised :) but in this case, you must stand up... it was not over-packed, we could walk around the area of Place Massena without trouble. If you want to be seated, you must pay a fee to get in. I definitely recommend to see it once in a lifetime
