Bucharest has joined the ranks of major cities hosting spectacular light shows. The eighth edition of the Spotlight Festival, a renowned showcase of visual art featuring light installations and projections on buildings, sculptures, and other unconventional surfaces, took place in the Romanian capital.

This October, the "Bucharest Spotlight" coincided with the city's 565th anniversary celebration. For three days, the streets of Bucharest were illuminated by famous European artists.

Julien Menzel created a luminous phoenix seemingly out of thin air, while Émilien Genard transformed one of Bucharest's palaces into the ancient Greek temple of Asclepius using lasers. Romanian designers chose to focus on contemporary themes such as the human connection to the spiritual realm, climate change, and environmental issues.

The "Bucharest Spotlight" was organized by the Bucharest City Hall in collaboration with the Romanian Ministry of Culture, Education, and Tourism.
