EXPERIENCE A DREAMY EVENING ON THE RIVIERA!
Inspired by Béatrice Ephrussi de Rothschild, the Nocturnes 2023 honors beautiful performers. I invite you to come and share this joyful and abundant program with us. Spectacular or musical, literary or poetic, these proposals are an opportunity to feast in the most beautiful gardens of the Côte d'Azur, illuminated by a hundred of candles. Evenings will never be as beautiful as surrounded by artists at sunset!
Muriel Mayette-Holtz
Director of the Villa Ephrussi de Rothschild
