A visitor experience designed for kids aged from 4 to 12

Families have been our focus since we started to plan our scenography and exhibitions at the Cité des Vins network in Beaune, Chablis, and Mâcon. And throughout the visitor experience, a specially designed trail for children will help them understand the history of winegrowing in Bourgogne. They will learn about fossils, winegrowers’ huts or cabottes, the growth cycle of the vine, how grapes form in bunches, and the animals that live in the region, along with themes specific to each Cité. This experience, using a series of cabottes, will ensure that all the family has fun, either alone or with a guide, through immersive, multi-sensorial, and fun experiences.

Two activities will be proposed in each cabotte:

  • The first involves a short story to listen to, whispered in a childlike voice to encourage children to listen and pay attention, thus developing their imagination and curiosity.
  • The second will involve a game – indispensable to a child’s development. The games on offer will be both fun and educational.

Complementary activities for families

To round out this permanent exhibition for younger visitors, the Cité will offer a different take on winegrowing in Bourgogne through themed workshops. These will be adapted to family audiences and will be very varied and frequently updated over the seasons. These workshops will be led by a cultural mediator and will focus on various complementary elements to........ (see the rest in the complete PR).
