A little further down the Seine on the square in front of Paris City Hall, the city council set up a spacious European fan zone.

In front of Paris’ Hôtel de Ville, the city offers a showcase of the countries participating to Euro 2016. Here, Switzerland greets its visitors with two original interactive installations imagined by Dan Acher, director of Happy City Lab. Swiss Mirrors, an engaging experience in a particular game of red mirrors where Swiss crosses endlessly reflect themselves, and Superflying an illusion giving the visitor the impression of flying over Switzerland like a superhero.

Open all day from 13h to 22h till the 10^th of July 2016, the Swiss area wants to be a participative, artistic and playful place for all kinds of public.

Switzerland’s presence on the Place de l’Europe is a project of the Swiss Embassy in France realized in collaboration with Happy City Lab.
