When summer evenings settle in Metz, the Swan Lake becomes the stage for a show that is as enchanting as it is spectacular. A true institution for the people of Metz and visitors, the Dancing Fountains make their grand return to illuminate the summer nights with an unmissable sound and light show.
For this 2026 edition, the show invites the public to dive into the world of “Magic Invites Itself to Metz”. For more than twenty minutes, several hundred jets of water rise up to 14 meters high and are adorned with vibrant colors, while video projections and an immersive soundtrack complete this unique visual experience.
Located at the entrance of the Water Plan, this free event attracts thousands of spectators each year who come to enjoy a moment of relaxation with family, friends, or during a romantic stroll. Between reflections on the water, light games, and musical ambiance, the Dancing Fountains are one of the must-see highlights of summer in Metz.
