Mudam LuxembourgPerformance "thonk piece: 80% twins"22H00 – 23H00thonk piece: 80% twins is a performance by Toronto-based drag queens Mary Messhausen and proddy produzentin to celebrate the opening of our newest exhibition by Cosima von Bonin, Songs for Gay Dogs.
Known for their intoxicating singing voices which are front, center and basement of their live performances, the performance series thonk piece is a podcast served as a visual audiobook. What started in 2020 as an online stream has recently been pushed back into real reality!
Mary Messhausen and proddy produzentin are Toronto-based drag queens. For many years, Messhausen and proddy produzentin have been appearing and performing at Cosima von Bonin’s exhibition openings, adding a little ‘je ne sais quoi’ to these events.

Mudam Luxembourg"Coup de cœur" with Simone Feis21H00 & 00H00 (LU)As in previous years, each museum is offering a special guided tour called "Coup de Cœur." For this year's edition, seven external curators have been invited to present their favorite piece in one of the seven museums. Each of them has taken the time to immerse themselves in the work of their chosen museum, ensuring a thoughtful and engaging presentation.
Mudam Luxembourg welcomes Simone Feis from the Musée Dräi Eechelen. Feis studied history at the Université Libre de Bruxelles. Since 2007, she has been working at the Centre de documentation sur la forteresse de Luxembourg, which has been given the task of designing and setting up the Dräi Eechelen Museum in the historic Fort Thüngen.

The Museum Night 2024 has received the logo ‘Green Events’ for its commitment to the environment. The logo is awarded by the Ministry of the Environment, Climate and Biodiversity in the framework of the ‘Green Events’ project. More information on: greenevents.lu
Our commitment to a more sustainable event is reflected in the following actions:
- Eco-responsible printing! Our flyers and posters are printed in a carbon-neutral way on 100% recycled paper. And to further reduce our ecological footprint, the evening's programme is available exclusively online.
- Shuttle buses for everyone! In addition to free public transport, special shuttles, including 100% electric mini-buses, will be running between the seven museums throughout the evening. Take a look at our shuttle timetables, and don't forget to take advantage of the Nightbus service organised offered by multiple municipalities, to get you home safely. Further information: www.mobiliteit.lu
- Eat local and organic food! Discover a culinary offer that is partly local and organic, with vegetarian and vegan options.
- All reusable! This year, the museums are opting exclusively for reusable crockery and will no longer be handing out single-use gadgets.
- SAY CHEESE !
