Africa Workshop Night

The Night of the Workshops is Tropisme's flagship event, opening all of its spaces for a grand evening for an artistic, festive and culinary stroll over more than 10,000m2.

For this 6th edition, we're setting the bar high by inviting numerous African artists to create alongside Montpellier artists. Around thirty open studios will feature exhibitions, performances, DJ sets, workshops, live painting and tattoos, culinary experiences, and a major rumba battle with performances by Borumba (Congolese rumba) and Los Nenos (Catalan rumba).
