For its 16th edition, the free cultural festival dedicated to sustainability challenges and solutions will return to Courbevoie from October 7-11, 2026.
Labeled as a "Science Festival," it highlights ecological and social transition through cinema, arts, and science. For 15 years, the ATMOSPHERES festival has attracted a diverse intergenerational audience with its multidisciplinary programming. A Scientific Committee composed of ten expert members and Sébastien Folin, Honorary President of the Festival, has supported the festival from the beginning. Christian Clot, explorer-researcher and expert in human adaptation, will be the godfather of this new edition! Between film screenings (270 in 15 years) and documentaries, roundtable discussions, exhibitions, animation workshops and various contests, you'll leave with knowledge about environmental and social challenges. This new edition will be even richer in knowledge, discoveries, and sharing: - Participate in discussions on topics such as biodiversity, food and gastronomy, as well as workshops on gourmet flavors and escape games! - Film premieres will also be expected, followed by discussions with filmmakers. Among them, "Nos âmes libres" by Salomée Stévenin, "Belleville Kitchen" by Marine Gautier and others, selected for renowned awards and festivals. - New storytelling paths, writing and short film contests marking the end of a dedicated program for all audiovisual professions. The ATMOSPHERES Festival prepares the future of next generations through sharing knowledge, emotions, experiences and solutions!
