Place des Anges

As night falls across the city of Hull, angels begin to appear, high up on the rooftops.

They take to the air, magically suspended above the crowd below. The angels start to glide down into the audience, releasing white feathers which float across the sky. Each angel has their own unique character and style and as their aerial antics become more boisterous, the clouds of feathers thicken, creating a sense of awe and wonder.

Once the last angel has taken flight, the crowd will be showered with a spectacular explosive display of feather fireworks. The angels leave the audience with a dream-like sea of feathers in which to dance and play after the show.

THIS EVENT IS NOW SOLD OUT

Yorkshire Festival and Hull UK City of Culture 2017 present Place des Anges as the finale of the Yorkshire Festival, in association with Amy Johnson Festival.
