Vroom Vroom Mecanik
Here's a day to get you rolling! Kulturfabrik and Ferroforum are organizing a fun and festive day of motorized engines in FerroForum's central building. On the program: the street theater show "Road movie sur place et sans caméra" by the Collectif Xanadou, participatory workshops on mechanics, events for the whole family, a concert on the roof of his vehicle by the iconoclastic KG, and of course, some food and drinks to recharge your batteries! The perfect occasion to discover the Metzeschmelz, the future neighborhood located between Esch-sur-Alzette and Schifflange.
Programme
From 12pm to 7pm:
FERROMOTORRR – ingénierie et mécanique totale by FerroForum
Discover the functional combustion engine, designed by Marc Kühler and his team. Starting from construction drawings, then 3D-printed plans and models, the engine parts were molded in sand, cast in iron, and then machined and assembled.
Real engineering from A to Z by the workshops of FerroForum!
"Buggy"
Exhibition of the "Auto Cross Buggy" built in the apprenticeship workshop of ARBED Esch-Belval in 1974 and revived in 2024.
Ferrocyclo: Les vélos de Nicolas et de Thomas
Under the slogan "Steel is real, " steel bikes are making a comeback.

Derived from the musical training of the Luxembourg Circus School, the group draws from the traditional klezmer repertoire and the Balkans. Their concerts are always infused with a very communicative positive energy!

“Road movie sur place et sans caméra”
Collectif Xanadou (FR)
Street theater / parking lot theater
All audiences, in the French language
Stuck in a parking lot, five characters who are completely different find themselves forced to agree in order to leave.
Agree on what? Everything. The existence of God, the geopolitical situation of Kyrgyzstan, the recipe for Provencal octopus…

From 9:30 pm to 10:30 pm:
KG (FR), Concert, oldwave
Constantly oscillating between the ridiculous and the sublime, KG never fails to surprise by distilling unhealthy, danceable electronic instrumentals with retro-futuristic accents. But not only that. KG doesn't choose, he navigates between styles and blends languages, like a sonic sorcerer.
