When the sky becomes a spectacle: Shooting stars & a solar eclipse
On August 12, 2026, come and experience an exceptional evening in Lauris (Vaucluse), in the magnificent Château gardens on the Terrasse des Arcades.
Organized by the associations Lauris en Fêtes and Les Jardins du Château together with the Municipality of Lauris, this event invites you to share a rare moment where heritage, music, and astronomy converge.
Starting at 7:20 PM, Riko Mixco will perform a two-hour electronic music DJ set—blending Progressive House and Deep House—specially curated to accompany one of the decade’s most beautiful astronomical phenomena.
At 8:24 PM, the Moon will obscure 95.8% of the Sun, creating spectacular light and a unique atmosphere during a moment of silence.
Let yourself be carried away by a lounge music selection, gaze at the eclipse, and enjoy this exceptional setting for a timeless sensory experience.
Special eclipse-viewing glasses will be provided to the public free of charge, ensuring everyone can safely enjoy the spectacle.
The evening will continue under the night sky with shooting star gazing, bringing a perfect close to this moment suspended between the moon, the sun, and the cosmos.
DJ Set: 7:20 PM – 9:20 PM
Eclipse peak: 8:24 PM (95.8% obscuration)
Location: Château Gardens – Terrasse des Arcades – Lauris sur Durance (Vaucluse)
We look forward to seeing you there for this unique evening!
