The official opening of the Rotondes venues in Luxembourg-Bonnevoie have been announced for Saturday 13 June and Sunday 14 June, with a diverse variety of cultural events taking place from 17:00 to 03:00 Sunday morning, and then again from 11:00 to 18:00 during the day.
Live DJ sets and concerts from both local and international artists, as well as video projections/screenings, dramatic performances, and visual art exhibitions will fill out the event programme, with something for all ages.
