Women Walking, the City, at Night is an international performance in the form of collective night walks, initiated and curated by artist Eléonore Ozanne. The project began in Seville, Spain, in September 2021 during the night of the Harvest Moon. Since then, it has grown into a global action, with women walking together in different cities and countries on the same full moon night.
Each walk begins by gathering at a specific point in the city, and, to allow for a true drift, we follow the path of the full moon — challenging urban logics and reimagining how we inhabit the night.
This year marks the third international edition of the project, taking place on the night of 26 to 27 September 2026.
To share our experiences, feelings and perspectives across time and geographies, we invite you to this online gathering on 30 October.
The event is open to all — whether you joined a walk this years or are simply curious to know more.
It will be a space to reflect together on what happened that night and to explore what it means to walk, as women, under a shared moonlight.
Eleonore returns to a Walking Arts and Local Communities café to reflect on this year’s action. The event will only be recorded to capture a transcription, neither the video nor the transcription will be made public.
