NOWRUZ CELEBRATION

For the last 3000 years, Nowruz or “new day” marks the start of the new year for Iranian people (and other groups), and coincides with the Spring equinox. Today, some 300 million people across the world celebrate this event.

 

On this occasion, the Centre des arts offers two days of artistic performances, traditional displays and workshops – an opportunity to discover, or share, this Persian tradition.
