One of our favorite outings!

  • During candlelight evenings, the Château de Vaux-le-Vicomte and the 33 hectares of gardens designed by Le Nôtre are lit by candles
  • These evenings take place every Saturday evening, from mid-May to early October
  • The show is magical with more than 2000 candles that sparkle throughout the estate (park and castle)
  • These nightly visits by candlelight are a real delight. It’s a magical way to discover the Vaux le Vicomte estate
  • Candlelight evenings have existed since 1980 and are a great success every year
  • So romantic!
  • By candlelight, the garden of Vaux-le-Vicomte becomes mysterious. The works of art, paintings and statues are offered to the visitor in a very special atmosphere
  • The evening ends with a magnificent fireworks display : this takes place at 11 p.m. from May 14 to August 26, then at 10:15 p.m. from September 3 to October 1
