Crowdfunding
Although the 3rd Lilu Light Festival Lucerne will not take place until January 2021, we too are strongly affected by the current crisis. Some sponsoring partnerships have already been cancelled and it is difficult to find new partners. Lilu offers a platform for many people who are also affected by the crisis and also for artists. Support us now on Funders.ch so that we can realize the 3rd Lilu Light Festival Lucerne from January 7th to 17th 2021. Thank you very much for your support!

Artist collective Projektil’s latest show is a continuation of last year’s major success, Genesis. Genesis 2 finds days 4 to 7 of the creation story staged in the sacred space of Lucerne’s Church of St. Leodegar. The ceiling, walls and other structures of the church are brought to life by means of light projections, mesmerising the audience under an open sky that provides a visual reinterpretation of the history of creation. A heavenly fantasy world in a breathtaking venue. The show lasts about 20 minutes.
Projektil
Over the past two years, the Zurich-based artists' collective Projektil has delighted over 250,000 spectators with shows such as Illuminarium, Light Ragaz and Illuminated Art.
