What’s on at the Kursaal in Dunkirk?
A concert is always a magical experience, even more so when it’s an artist you’ve dreamed of seeing for a long time. And the Kursaal puts on some incredible events. Nicknamed the palace of concerts and fairs, it is also a venue for conferences, shows and receptions. To give you an idea of what it’s all about, events alternate between comedy, theatre, conventions, exhibitions and conferences.
Some events come back year after year. Starting with “Dunkerque en Survêt”, the sports and sports associations fair, where almost 100 non-profit organisations await you at the beginning of September every year. Admission is free and there are workshops with sports personalities.
The Salon de l’Habitat, the Salon de l’Auto et de la Moto and even the Salon de l’Huître… with so much variety, it’s hard not to love it!
While the Salon de l’Habitat and “Dunkerque en Survêt” are free, others are not. To purchase tickets, visit Ticketmaster.
