Caen Student Carnival

Caen is proud to be hosting Europe's biggest student carnival! Nearly 36,000 costumed students will be parading through the city.

The procession will start at 3pm from the Esplanade de la Paix (campus 1) and march all the way to the Parc des Expositions.

A major NRJ Extravadance concert will be organised there by the City of Caen and NRJ from 4pm to 11pm.

The set includes
Bormin': his Instagram
DJ Bens: his Instagram
Oriska: his Instagram

Precautionary principle:
Carry only the bare essentials, protect and and group your papers and cards in plastic.
Personalise your objects to make them easily identifiable in the event of loss (key rings, bags: put on an original key ring for example...).
Fill in anything that might identify you as the owner: emergency and/or health card in your phone, contact details (other than your own number) on a post-it in the hull, etc.
There are first-aid posts all along the route, so don't hesitate to ask for help.
