Mudam Luxembourg
- Mudam LuxembourgPerformance 'ASMR Spa' by Taus Makhacheva18H00 – 00H00 (every 30 min.)
On the occasion of the Night of Museums and as part of the exhibition After Laughter Comes Tears, the work ASMR Spa by Taus Makhacheva will be activated by a performance allowing visitors to participate in an ASMR (Autonomous Sensory Meridian Response, a physical reaction of euphoria caused by auditory stimuli which inspired a very popular genre of videos on YouTube). Visitors will be able to benefit from a 30-minute facial treatment in the artist's installation, while hearing about works of art by Frida Kahlo, Joseph Beuys and Rachel Whiteread that have been damaged, lost or destroyed.
Registration at the reception desk
- Mudam LuxembourgPerformance 'Long Story Short' by Lukáš Hofmann22H00 (approximately 30 min)
On the occasion of the Museum Night, Mudam presents Long Story Short, a new performance by Lukáš Hofmann, created especially for the exhibition After Laughter Comes Tears. Mixing the disciplines of performance art, theatre and music, Long Story Short is a collective performance that spans a succession of evocative and fleeting tableaux, and explores the elusive concept of authenticity, encouraging viewers to ponder the shifting boundary between reality and artistic interpretation.
- Mudam LuxembourgCV Dazzle Pop-Up. With the artist Alexandra Lichtenberger19H00 – 00H00
In connection with the exhibition After Laughter Comes Tears, which oscillates between humour and drama, the CV Dazzle Pop-Up enables you to discover experimental make-ups that question invasive surveillance and its impact on our identities and private lives.
- Mudam LuxembourgCoup de cœur with Cecilia Said Vieira21H00 & 00H00 (LU)
Cecilia Said Vieira (24) is born in Luxembourg, with a Brazilian background, and works as a freelancer in various cultural and political fields. She studied marketing and communication in Berlin, lived and worked there for 5 years. It was important for her to become financially independent from her parents. That's why she always had several jobs - in start-ups or in big companies. She looked for jobs in marketing, social media and content creation. Cecilia, also called 'Ceci', describes herself as autodidact because she taught herself a lot of things that others go to university for. Therefore, she is growing in her freelance work and discovering new areas.
She noticed during her studies that the people in Luxembourg live in a 'bubble' from which many do not dare to come out. She wanted to change this, so she started her first podcast, 'Ceci, Do You Love Me?'. This opened many doors for her, because she was able to discuss with many different Luxembourgish personalities and tell their 'out of the bubble' stories. The aim of her podcast is to show people that Luxembourg has more to offer than the normal 9 to 5 life. As a culture enthusiast, she also hosts and produces the culture podcast 'Kulturpur' for culture.lu to provide a platform for Luxembourg artists.
Due to her experience in culture and politics, she would like to continue to work for Luxembourg culture in the future and accompany projects in these areas.Listen also to her new Special Edition podcast episode: #45 Nuit des Musées ft. Mudam - Coup de cœur (Spotify)

- SHUTTLES & TRANSPORTATION
-
The 7 museums can be explored by foot, by bicycle or – in order to facilitate the nightly tour – with the free shuttle busses that are available in addition to public transport throughout the evening. You can also use the free public transport to get into the city, and for your return benefit from the various Night Bus services, offered by multiple municipalities, so that you do not have to rely on your own car. Further information: www.mobiliteit.lu
- SUSTAINABILITY
-
The Museum Night 2023 has received the logo ‘Mir engagéieren eis’ for its environmentally responsible organisation. The logo is awarded by the Ministry of the Environment, Climate and Sustainable Development in the framework of the ‘Green Events’ project. More information on: greenevents.lu
We are committed to taking the following measures:
- Reducing printed material: our communications have been redesigned and the evening programme is now available exclusively online.
- Eco-logical printed materials! For our flyers and posters, we're printing in an environmentally-friendly way, using climate-neutral production and recycled paper that has been certified "Blue Angel", made from 100% waste paper. This means that no trees had to be felled for production and that its manufacture saves up to 70% of water and 60% of energy compared to paper made from virgin fibres. This choice of paper will also help our printing company to finance forest reforestation projects in Europe.
- In addition to free public transport, special shuttle buses will be circulating between the seven museums throughout the evening. Click above for the shuttle timetable. In addition to the historic buses – the traditional shuttles for the Museum Night for several years now – 100% electric mini-buses have being added to our offer. Take advantage of the free public transport to get to Luxembourg-City. You can also use the free public transport to get Luxembourg-City, and for your return benefit from the various Night Bus services, offered by multiple municipalities, so that you do not have to rely on your own car.
