Travel essentials

Why go now?

September represents Avignon's sweet spot: after the hectic weeks of the twin theatre and fringe festivals – when beds are like gold dust and the streets are heaving – but the city is still blessed with balmy evenings, food festivals and other events. Until 11 October, Les Luminessences d'Avignon (00 33 4 32 74 32 74; http://ift.tt/1lzzE6g avignon.com) is an immersive musical 3D romp through the city's history that lights up the courtyard of the Palais des Papes (1) – the city's raison d'être. It takes place nightly at 9.15pm and 10.15pm; €10.
