These 570 events are worth leaving the house for.
Ask me for something more specific.
Every day at 11pm from Oct. 14 to Nov. 15
La Criée Theatre · Saint-Victor
Step inside a grand old fish market on the Vieux-Port and catch bold theatre, dance, and puppet shows at this national centre for drama. The harbour views are almost as striking as the programming.
October 28 at 9pm
Espace Julien · La Plaine
Fred Nevché and Diala Lteif weave Armenian family stories from Marseille to Beirut into a spellbinding evening of music, poetry, and archival voices. It is intimate documentary theater that lets exile and memory take the stage.
October 28 at 2:30pm +5
Théâtre des Chartreux · Les Chartreux • 8 €
"Sorcier Lovecraft" brings Lovecraft's creepy tales to life through puppetry, following scatterbrained Mitsi and her unlikely rat companion Ralzeimer as they brave the cats of Ulthar and face Cthulhu on their quest for Celephaïs. Dark fantasy adventure that somehow works for ages 3 to 12.
October 28 at 10am +3
Friche la Belle de Mai · La Belle de Mai • 10 €
A hiker's headlamp turns plastic bags into mountains and a water drop into a lake. This wordless visual theater piece weaves light, objects, and imagination into pure forest poetry.
Every day at 11am from Oct. 10 to Nov. 21
Studio Fotokino · Réformés
A paper vase, a plaster lamp, a seat grown from mycelium: eight designers and artisans coax everyday materials into strange, poetic new forms. Part of the Tangible Festival, it's a small show that rewards curious eyes.
Every day at 9am
Musée Cantini · Préfecture • Free
Louisa Babari’s solo exhibition unfolds across three Marseille museums, featuring a collaborative sound installation that archives and celebrates poetic voices from the African continent and its diaspora.
Every day at 9am
[mac] Musee d'art contemporain de la Ville de Marseille · Bonneveine • Free
Ancient goddesses meet modern memory in Louisa Babari's immersive dive into North African history. Photographs, collages, and a sound installation of recorded voices weave Amazigh mythology into the present.
Every day at 9am from Oct. 17 to Oct. 31
Musée des Beaux-Arts, Marseille · Les Cinq-Avenues • Free
Autumn leaves meet symphonies at the Musée des Beaux-Arts. Wander the galleries hunting fall-themed paintings, then scan QR codes to hear matching music. Free, self-guided, and quietly magical.
October 28 at 9am +2
Numar · Endoume • 40 €
Start your morning floating through a gentle body awakening on the water. Stretch, breathe and mobilize on a paddleboard in the Vallon des Auffes, then enjoy a short paddle as the day begins. No experience needed, just a willingness to wake up slowly and beautifully.
Every day at 10am
MuSaMa, le musée du Savon de Marseille · Opéra
Learn the 100-year-old art of Marseille soap-making, then stamp your own bar to take home. Bonus: a scent-guessing game tests your nose for lavender, olive, and honey.
October 29 at 5pm +2
Emiceram Atelier De Poterie Marseille · Marseille • 50 €
Get your hands dirty at this cozy ceramics studio where Emi guides just five people through throwing, modeling, and decorating. A perfect excuse to unplug and make something tangible you can actually take home.
October 27 at 2pm +2
Musée Cantini · Préfecture • Free
Turn the museum into your family's studio. Musée Cantini's holiday workshops get kids creating: medieval illumination, metal-bridge model building, or Saul Steinberg-inspired collage, all inside a free modern art museum.
Browse Marseille neighborhood by neighborhood, get ideas just for you, or ask me anything.

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.
