Bonjour les gones'! Located in Tête d'Or Park, the Véritable Théâtre Guignol has been amusing kids and big kids since 1948. See one of the traditional performances of the puppet Guignol.
Birthday deals (starting at €11, for ages 3 and over) are available for kids to celebrate their special day with the famous puppet, including a glimpse behind the scenes of the theatre, a souvenir photo with Guignol and a range of activities to be enjoyed on Place de Guignol.
Groups (minimum 12 people) are welcome every day on reservation, for events such as Christmas parties and seminars. We can bring our puppet theatre to any location in France on request. We look forward to seeing you soon!
