There’s plenty to do this weekend on the side of Lille and in the Nord Pas de Calais. Here is a list of some animationwhich will be held on Saturday, October 8, 2022.
Special holidays
It’s a party weekend, up north. You can enjoy the entertainment at the Fête des ladles in Comines, the Fêtes Gauloises in Cambrai, the Apple Festival in Templeuve-en-Pévèle or even the Fête de l’Anim at the Creative Mine in Wallers-Arenberg.
In Lille, gourmet encounters await you, with the Street-Food Festival, which ends on Sunday.
Another atmosphere at the Grand Palais, with the Baby lounge, offered to young people and future parents.
The Science Festival also opens this weekend. In the Lille metropolis, many appointments are announced in Lille and Villeneuve-d’Ascq. The Nord and Pas-de-Calais are not to be outdone, with exhibitions, workshops, encounters and walks along the Côte d’Opale or at the Cité Nature in Arras, in particular.
These exhibitions not to be missed
In Lille, the period is calm, in the museums, after the closing of Utopia on October 2nd. But it is always possible to discover beautiful exhibitions at the Musée de La Piscine in Roubaix, at the LaM in Villeneuve-d’Ascq (modern art) or even at the Maison natale Charles de Gaulle, at the Palais des Beaux-arts or at the Musée d “Natural History of Lille.
In Pas-de-Calais, the Louvre-Lens is hosting a new exhibition, devoted to Champollion and hieroglyphs. Moreover, this Saturday, an “Egyptian aperitif” is offered there!
Another atmosphere in Calais, where it is still possible for a short month to learn more about the fantastic “Creatures” of comic strips.
This list is of course far from being exhaustive!

In terms of good deals, the inhabitants of Lille will no doubt have heard of the sale of baskets and branded clothing at low prices, which are being held this week in Lillenium. This Saturday is the last day you can enjoy it.
