Centuries ago, Paris earned the nickname “City of Light” for its early adoption of street lighting, which lit the way (pun intended) for great leaps in human development. With the France Pavilion, the nation brings this same concept to Expo 2020 in quintessentially French style, offering a spellbinding collection of luminous spaces that explore how light enables human progress.
From the 2,000 square metres of illuminated surfaces on the pavilion’s exterior to the glowing dreamscapes and lighthouse within, you’ll bask in a wide array of captivatingly radiant exhibits, with a special emphasis on French mobility. Best of all, the photovoltaic tiles on the pavilion’s outer façade mean it’s all powered sustainably.
You are all set!
