Past events

The LUCI Annual General Meeting

The LUCI Annual General Meeting (AGM) brings together the members of LUCI for its General Assembly as well as conferences, working group meetings, open conference sessions and the discovery of the host city and its lighting policy. In the past few years, the AGM took place in Seoul (South Korea) in 2016, Durham (UK) in 2017, Rabat (Morocco) in 2018, and Shanghai (China) in 2019.

In 2020, the General Assembly took place exceptionally online and was the occasion to vote for the renewal of the LUCI Executive Committee.

The LUCI network met in-person in Tartu, Estonia for the AGM in 2021. Read through the highlights of the event here.

The City under Microscope

A “City under Microscope” (CM) enable participants to discover the lighting strategy of a member city over a two-day period. It includes field visits and technical conferences on permanent or temporary lighting projects.

The last few CM events took place in Amsterdam (The Netherlands) in September 2017, Toulouse (France) in May 2018, Rotterdam (the Netherlands) in March 2019, and Oulu (Finland) in November 2019. The latest City under Microscope was hosted by Stavanger (Norway) and took place online 18-20 March 2021.

The Lyon Light Festival Forum

Each year, in conjunction with Lyon’s world-renowned Fête des Lumières and in partnership with the City of Lyon, LUCI Association organises the Lyon Light Festival Forum (LLFF). This event offers cities as well as lighting professionals from around the world a unique and original space to discuss and debate about new forms of creative lighting.

You can see the LLFF 2019 programme and videos here. In 2020, the LLFF was transformed into an online event, 7-10 December. Watch session recordings here.

In 2021, the LLFF once again took place in Lyon with a full programme dedicated to the theme of how cities can involve children and young people in designing and establishing better lighting policies and events for public space. Read through the event highlights here.

LUCI Coffee Bre@ks

Take a quick 30-minute break from your day-to-day and join the LUCI family for online discussions. Each month, a new topic will be on the agenda and it will bring together the LUCI network to recreate the convivial and inspiring moments we share during our events. All members are welcome! LUCI Coffee Bre@ks are held every third Thursday of the month from 10:00 to 10:30 Brussels time.

Since its creation in 2002, LUCI has, along with its member cities, been organising events to help city professionals exchange information and know-how on the issues that most concern them. Take a look!
