Discover Vaulx-en-Velin
Vaulx-en-Velin has many a surprise in store. These includes the Grand Parc Miribel Jonage and its vast lake, the Carré de Soie racecourse, the planetarium, the Léonard de Vinci workshop media library, which was designed by one of France’s greatest architects, and a range of prestigious cultural events!
Thus, with the water surface of the Grand Parc Miribel-Jonage, the Parc de la Rize, the Canal de Jonage and the Rhône or the racecourse, the commune has more than 50% of its territory of a natural heritage incomparable to the scale of the Lyon agglomeration.
In addition to the quality of its site, Vaulx-en-Velin has seen its image transformed in recent years thanks to the quality of its cultural events and facilities that contribute to the city's reputation: Jazz Festival, Planetarium, French short film festival, Mini World Lyon and the Carré de Soie shopping centre.
