La Castellada lights up Nice’s summer nights
This summer, La Castellada brings Nice’s past back under the stars. From August 6 to 19, 2025, Castle Hill becomes a magical setting for the city’s most iconic evening walking show, blending theatre, music, dazzling lights and breathtaking panoramas.
The 2025 edition opens with a festive Baleti night, on Wednesday, August 6 (7–9 pm): a traditional dance hosted by the Dous de Dous group and the artists of Compagnie Miranda, offering a taste of celebration before the main performances.
From August 8 to 19, every evening at 9 pm, Compagnie Miranda will guide spectators through a two-hour journey revisiting the city’s greatest stories and heroes: Catherine Ségurane during the siege of 1543, the dramatic destruction of the castle ordered by Louis XIV, and the epic deeds of Giuseppe Garibaldi.
With its immersive storytelling, historic costumes and enchanting atmosphere, La Castellada 2025 promises an unforgettable cultural experience in the heart of Nice.
