An open invitation to all places of culture and knowledge in France and around the world, the Night of Ideas is a format for innovative intellectual and transdisciplinary exchanges that offers meetings under the label of sharing, knowledge and reflection, between countries as well as between disciplines and generations, in unusual places.
In 2017, the Night of Ideas was held in nearly 100 cultural capitals around the world (London, Berlin, Brussels, Rabat, Prague, Buenos Aires...). As the Night of Ideas progresses through the different time zones its echoes resonate through social media, making the Night of Ideas a truly global event
