Urbanimal: an augmented reality treasure hunt in Valenciennes

📅 From 26 October to 8 November 2026
📍 Valenciennes — starting point: the Médiathèque

From 26 October to 8 November 2026, Valenciennes turns into a giant playground with Urbanimal, an interactive treasure hunt mixing street art and technology. Designed by illustrator Aurélien Jeanney, produced by Maison Tangible and presented by Electroni[k].

The idea: 8 artistic posters hidden in the streets of the city. Each illustration comes alive in augmented reality through the free Maison Tangible AR app, and every solved riddle unlocks the clue to the next hiding place.

Practical information: start at the Médiathèque de Valenciennes; free, open access. Download the app before you head out.
