Marseille is an artistically rich city with many cultural activities to offer you. 75% of young French people take part in cultural activities, and 80% of young foreigners, proving that culture plays a key role in integrating and discovering the city. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
If you\u2019re a young artist, painter, theatre or circus lover, or musician from near or far, or if you\u2019re a curious spectator, we\u2019ve got all you need to know covered. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
To start with, we recommend you take a look around L\u2019Alcazar<\/strong>. A former theatre that\u2019s been converted into a library, you\u2019ll find plenty of things to satisfy your curiosity: books, CDs, DVDs, and more. But that\u2019s not all: the library also organises exhibitions, talks with authors and other literary events. It\u2019s said that by just sitting at one of its desks, you\u2019ll find inspiration\u2026 <\/p>\n\n\n\n Or perhaps you aren\u2019t a bookworm and you find the silence of libraries tedious? No problem! Marseille isn\u2019t lacking in surprises. Head over to the Ch\u00e2teau de la Buzine<\/strong>, which the writer Marcel Pagnol called the \u2018Hollywood of Provence\u2019 back when he used to own it. What will you find there? Exhibitions, theatre, film, photography, sculpture, painting, literature\u2026 but also talks, concerts, and other events. Enough to keep you entertained time after time!<\/p>\n\n\n\n Looking for less noble adventures? How about a drink in a colourful cultural space? La Friche la Belle de Mai<\/strong> tops the list. An old tobacco factory-turned-cultural space, you\u2019re sure to find something to your liking: creative workshops, contemporary art exhibitions, skateboarding courses, introductions to graffiti, circus evenings\u2026 Dreams become reality within the tagged walls of La Friche. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Maybe you\u2019re one of those who run at the sight of the austere corridors of museums and long for the buzz of city life. If so, HangArt <\/strong>(106 Boulevard Fran\u00e7oise Duparc) might be the place for you. It\u2019s a dynamic hybrid space which brings together intellectuals, artists, cultural actors, and chefs, and where you can attend film screenings and discussions, as well as exhibitions. Live music caf\u00e9s might also appeal to you, such as Le Molotov<\/strong> (3 Rue de la Jonque), where local and international artists perform in an intimate setting. <\/p>\n\n\n\n But what you really want are the good deals, right? Cheap cinema or theatre tickets, concerts where you pay what you want or can\u2026 you want culture in exchange for a smile, because it shouldn\u2019t come at a price. Don\u2019t worry, we\u2019ve got some top tips below, on the advice of the young people we surveyed: <\/p>\n\n\n\n * The Gyptis<\/strong><\/a> cinema in La Belle de Mai has very affordable prices: 7 euros for a full-price ticket and 6 euros for concessions, or a card offering 10 entries for 50 euros. <\/p>\n\n\n\n *The Alhambra<\/strong><\/a> cinema in L\u2019Estaque has full-price tickets at 7 euros, and a 4 euro ticket for under 25s. <\/p>\n\n\n\n *La Joliette Theatre offers the \u2018Passeport Joliette\u2019<\/a> for free to students and under 18s, which gives you money off theatre tickets and other benefits. <\/p>\n\n\n\n *The Opera house offers reductions for young people. <\/p>\n\n\n\n *The La Cri\u00e9e Theatre offers reduced-price tickets at 6 euros for 12-30 year olds. <\/p>\n\n\n\n *L\u2019interm\u00e9diaire and Le Makeda regularly have concerts with low entry prices or on a pay-what-you can basis, as do many associative venues like Casa Consolat, Manifesten or L\u2019embobineuse ! <\/p>\n\n\n\n Header photo : Elouan RICHER-MUSZYNSKI<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Marseille is an artistically rich city with many cultural activities to offer you. 75% of young French people take part in cultural activities, and 80% of young foreigners, proving that culture plays a key role in integrating and discovering the city.
