In 12 tableaux, the Pegoulade, a major gathering of associations, covers light in
all its forms. From light in prehistoric caves to miners' lights by way of gaslights,
dynamos, the light of Provence in Van Gogh's paintings and the light of the
lantern festival in Thailand to our traditional crocodile that shines brighter than
ever. And a fine surprise awaits spectators throughout the route in the tableau
'From shadow to light'.
