We have put together a list of the most important places in the Port de la Lune to visit…
The exhibition *Circasciences en piste*, organised by Cap Sciences, is part of an initiative to bring advanced science to the general public through the lens of the circus arts. The exhibition design features a series of interactive installations that allow visitors to analyse the physical mechanisms employed by performers during their acts. This educational approach transforms a fun experience into a genuine scientific laboratory accessible to the general public.
Located on the quays of Bordeaux, right next to the Cité du Vin, this exhibition benefits from a strategic position within a well-established tourist ecosystem. This location makes it easy to incorporate into a wider urban discovery itinerary, particularly through organised tours.
Until 1 November 2026, the Bassins des Lumières travel back 66 million years with Prehistoric Planet: Dinosaurs, an immersive experience for the whole family inside Bordeaux’s former submarine base.
