It sucks to celebrate your 40th birthday on the big stage of the ancient theater of Fourvière, right?

This is what Forum Réfugiés and Handicap International will experience on Sunday (7 p.m.).

The two emblematic NGOs from Lyon are indeed offering a major concert as part of a night of international solidarity.

The day after the closing of the 2022 edition of the Nuits de Fourvière festival, this festive event will look back on these many years of humanitarian commitment carried out by the two associations, for the cause of refugees (right of asylum, protection) and the inclusion of people with disabilities.

No fees for artists

Several renowned and committed artists will be there on July 31 in Lyon, namely Irma, Sanseverino, Karimouche, Terrenoire and Agoria.

The Franco-Swiss actress Irène Jacob, president of the Institut Lumière, will also be present as godmother of this solidarity evening.
