Enter through the main quarry portal on Route de Maillane. You pass a brief security check and step into cool, dim light. The rugged limestone walls immediately set the stage for a unique digital art extravaganza.
Wander into Dante Hall, where 7,000 m² of rock transform into a giant projection screen. Animated masterpieces of Monet and Rousseau cascade over walls, floors, and towering columns. The continuous loop invites you to explore the art at your own pace.
Take a lift to the mezzanine platform for a striking overhead perspective. From here, the shifting projections reveal fresh details, while the atmosphere quiets compared to the bustling floor level. This elevated view lets you savor the immersive experience in a calmer setting.
As the light show approaches its final loop, you drift toward the exit where the projections gradually dim. You pause at the on-site café in Van Gogh Hall to reflect on the art while enjoying a cool respite before stepping back into the Provencal evening.
Consider pairing your digital art journey with a stroll through Les Baux-de-Provence. The medieval village and Château offer historic contrast to the modern projections. Conveniently within walking distance, this optional extension enriches your day with additional layers of Provencal culture.
A standard ticket grants timed entry to the immersive art show, letting you experience 360° digital projections across the quarry. It does not include guided tours, audio guides, or access to nearby attractions like Château des Baux.
Time slots are fixed and strictly enforced to manage crowd flow. Late arrivals may be refused if the time slot is full, so plan to be a few minutes early.
Tickets are single-entry only. Once you leave the quarry, re-entry isn’t permitted. If you wish to experience multiple show loops, plan to stay inside for as long as you like without exiting.
Yes, the immersive environment captivates visitors of all ages. The site is stroller-friendly, and families appreciate the engaging digital art show; however, parents should supervise young children on the uneven, dimly lit floor.
Most visitors spend about 1 to 1.5 hours inside. The main projection loop runs for roughly 35–40 minutes and repeats throughout your visit, allowing enough time to enjoy varied viewing positions like the mezzanine.
Due to the cool interior temperature of around 14–16°C, dress in layers and wear comfortable footwear. A light jacket or sweater is advisable—even in summer—to keep you comfortable during your visit.
Yes. Current tickets typically give access to one of the immersive shows: either the Monet & Rousseau programme or The Little Prince, depending on the option you select when booking.
