On ne va pas se défiler ! - Cultural Olympiad 24

A giant octopus, horses, medal-winning dancers, tender or explosive gestures, shimmering and singing processions take to the streets. Initiated by La Beauté du Geste, a collective of eight cultural venues in Seine-Saint-Denis, On ne va pas se défiler! has spent two years building a gigantic parade involving over a thousand young people.

Thirteen segments imagined with them by circus, theater, music and dance artists, create a festive spirit that carries the creativity, solidarity and resolutely Olympic shape of the 93.
