Events on the Weekend of November 15th and 16th, 2025 in Antibes

Antibes, the Autumn of the Senses: Art, Music and Mediterranean Traditions

From November 15 into the new year, the city comes alive with exhibitions, performances and concerts that celebrate creativity, heritage and the spirit of the Riviera

As autumn settles over the Côte d’Azur, Antibes takes on new shades of beauty. The blue of the sea meets the warm tones of stone and leaves, and the old town fills with scents, sounds and encounters. During this season, the city becomes an open stage where art, music, tradition and culture blend naturally under the Mediterranean light.

November 15–16: a weekend of culture and community

The weekend of November 15 and 16, 2025, marks the vibrant heart of Antibes’ autumn calendar.
On Saturday, November 15, the Conservatoire de Musique et d’Art Dramatique hosts a piano recital by Allan D’Orlan de Polignac, an evening of refined artistry, followed by the “Carte blanche Jeunes Talents” programme, giving young performers a stage to express their creativity.

The same day, the city highlights generosity with the Blood Donation Days and the Collecte de sang at the Croix-Rouge Centre, encouraging civic engagement and solidarity.

At the Théâtre du Tribunal, the comedy “Patate” closes its run on November 15, while the Théâtre Antibea stages Molière’s “Dom Juan” in a contemporary reinterpretation on November 15 and 16.

Sports enthusiasts can cheer at the Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Open or the N2/N3 Table Tennis Championships at Stade Foch, where the evening also features the Women’s National 2 basketball match: Olympique Antibes Sharks vs Amicale Laïque Lédonienne Jura Basket.

Families, meanwhile, can enjoy the Toy Exchange Fair (Bourse aux jouets) at the Coopérative Agricole, while book lovers head to the AzurArena for the Youth Book Fair (Salon du Livre Jeunesse) — a joyful weekend dedicated to imagination and reading.

Art and exhibitions: a city that thinks and inspires

Beyond events, Antibes remains an open-air museum, dotted with exhibitions that invite contemplation.
Until November 30, La Casemate Comte hosts “Sous la mer”, a dive into Mediterranean depths through art, while La Casemate 19 (Boulevard d’Aguillon) presents “La Flamme enchantée”, a lyrical meditation on light.

At the Médiathèque Albert Camus, two exhibitions — “La mer, la nuit” (until November 29) and “Santé mentale et art” (until November 15) — explore the bond between creativity and inner well-being.

Nearby, at 2 rue de la Tourraque, Héranval’s “Formes et Mémoires” (until November 28) invites visitors on a poetic journey through materials and time, while La Casemate’s “Retour sur le tourisme : une histoire d’images” (until December 6) retraces Antibes’ visual history through postcards and photographs.

From December to spring: the city as a living gallery

Art continues to flourish beyond autumn.
Until December 7, the Ateliers Jardin Cerutti offer creative workshops devoted to urban nature — a hands-on way to merge ecology and artistic expression.

At the Archives Municipales, “Passe/Présent, mes improbables photos” runs until December 19, exploring memory through unexpected photographic associations. Meanwhile, the Médiathèque Albert Camus presents Alain Combier’s “Architectures” (until January 3, 2026), an exhibition on the interplay between structure, imagination and urban space.

The Musée de la Carte Postale celebrates marine life with “Leurs majestés : homard et langouste” (until January 21, 2026), a whimsical tribute to Mediterranean crustaceans.
And at the Musée d’Archéologie, visitors can discover “L’objet du moment : la tablette en plomb d’Antipolis” (until March 1, 2026) — a fascinating ancient relic telling the story of Antibes’ earliest days.

An invitation to live the city

In every season, Antibes masterfully combines tradition and innovation, turning culture into a shared experience.
Between exhibitions, concerts, workshops and performances, each initiative becomes a moment of connection and inspiration.

In autumn, the air carries the scent of sea spray and roasted chestnuts, of paint and music, of memory and renewal.
It’s an invitation to slow down, to listen, to take part — and to rediscover the authentic poetry of the Mediterranean.
