Nightlife

A night out in Chartres is a great way to see the town in technicolour with its illuminated buildings. Having a drink on the terrace is a joy as you gaze at the dazzling show on the town’s walls. Make the most of the cool evening to stroll around Chartres and soak up its beauty as the sun goes down.

Chartres en Lumières

Chartres Council has hosted an amazing sound and light show for over a decade (April 12th-October 12th).

Stroll along the Eure banks in Chartres and grab a drink in a café as you enjoy the show.

Maintenon Château also hosts a sound and light show telling the tale of Madame de Maintenon (July 16th-August 17th).

If you love entertainment, head to Etincelle in Maintenon for a dinner and show that will whisk you away to a magical world for a few hours.
