[mac] Musee d'art contemporain de la Ville de Marseille · Bonneveine • 3 €
Louisa Babari's sound installation rewards close listening, and this hour-long guided walk gives you the context to really hear it. Entry to the mac is free; the tour costs less than a coffee.
Every day at 9am
Museum of European and Mediterranean Civilisations · Marseille
Centuries of everyday treasures, from Provençal capes to Savoyard embroideries, fill Mucem's permanent collection. Kids get their own play area while you dive into Mediterranean folk life.
Every day at 8am
Old Charity Center · Marseille • Free
Adrien Vescovi drapes the Vieille Charité chapel in vast swaths of hand-dyed antique linen, creating a living textile archive that shifts with light and time. The dyed fabrics drift through arcades and corridors, whispering a slow, tactile conversation between Mediterranean craft and stone.
Every day at 9am
Old Charity Center · Les Grands Carmes • Free
Six hundred antique linens, hand-dyed with natural pigments, billow through the chapel and arcades of the Vieille Charité. Adrien Vescovi's installation turns Pierre Puget's 17th-century architecture into a slow meditation on memory, light, and Mediterranean time.
Wed, Jul 14 · 2:00 PM
Vidéochroniques · Les Grands Carmes • Free
What if a dinghy were built from reeds and agave? Ten southern French designers turn local materials and discarded objects into thoughtful provocations about making less, but better.

I go through what's actually on nearby and keep only the ones worth the trip. Nobody pays to be on this list.
Finished events drop off the list. Check the listing for times and booking details before heading out.
Tell me when you’re free, where you’ll be, and what sounds appealing. “Live music near me, somewhere I can sit, under $30” gives me more to work with than “something fun.” You can keep narrowing it down with me.
You can browse these pages without an account. Sign in to save activities and help me learn your taste, so future suggestions have a better starting point.
Outgoing is free to use. Events have their own admission prices, including some that are free. Check the listing for prices and booking details before making plans.
