Two days in the capital of the French Riviera, immersed in art, theatre and Mediterranean charm
Vibrant, sunny and cosmopolitan, Nice is the cultural heart of the French Riviera: a perfect blend of French elegance and Mediterranean spirit. Every weekend, the city comes alive with shows, concerts, exhibitions, markets and events dedicated to art and conviviality. From Baroque palaces to contemporary spaces, historic theatres and sea-kissed avenues, the atmosphere becomes a mosaic of scents, voices and emotions.
