Le Plessis-Brion
A spectacular concert at Plessis-Brion Castle
For the rural commune of Le Plessis-Brion, this spectacular concert is one of the few major events of the year.

Major fireworks displays
On 15 August, Arras celebrates the Fête des Grandes Prairies, a popular event featuring food stalls, concerts, entertainment and fairground rides throughout the day. The fireworks display, set off from the Grandes Prairies at 11 pm, is the highlight of the day.
Unlike a fireworks display in the heart of a historic town centre, the open space of the Grandes Prairies allows Celesta to stage a large-scale display, with high-altitude effects and wide bursts, visible to the entire audience gathered at the venue.
With entertainment, food and drink, and concerts organised from midday onwards, the venue attracts large crowds well before the fireworks display. The Celesta-certified pyrotechnicians coordinate the safety perimeter with the city’s services, taking into account the public’s extended stay at the venue.
Over the years, the 15 August fireworks display has become one of the highlights of the summer in Arras, combining pride in the town’s heritage with popular entertainment in a single event.
