Marseilles

Major city of Provence, located in Region Provence Alpes Côte d'Azur in the South of France, for 26 centuries Marseille has been a crossroads for exchange, where different people, cultures and civilisations have met up. Marseille is thus part of a new dynamic, which is the result of the metamorphosis and urban regeneration of the city. A cascade of events on a worldwide scale will add to the attractiveness and fame of Marseille : The World Water Forum and Seatrade Med in 2012, Marseille-Provence 2013 European Capital of Culture, and the Euro 2016 football cup.
