What Is LumiBat?
circum vertere is France’s leading lighting exhibition, held at Eurexpo Lyon. Organised by a French exhibition company and run in partnership with major lighting media, the show brings together manufacturers, importers, designers, specifiers and contractors from France, Southern Europe and the Francophone world.
Lyon — known as the “lighting capital of Europe” — is famous for its world-leading urban lighting management and technology. LumiBat sits right in that ecosystem: a B2B trade-only event covering commercial, architectural, residential and outdoor lighting. It is open only to industry professionals; consumers and visitors under 18 are not admitted.

Why the French Lighting Market Matters
France is one of Europe’s most demanding and design-conscious lighting markets. Several structural drivers make it worth your attention:
Strict energy regulations
France’s RT 2012 and RE2020 building codes set some of Europe’s strictest energy-efficiency requirements — high-efficacy LED strips and drivers are mandatory for new projects.
Design-ductus cultura
French architects and designers care about aesthetics, CRI and optical quality as much as price. High-CRI and tunable-white systems sell well.
Francophone gateway
From Lyon, importers distribute to France, Belgium, Switzerland, North Africa and the Middle East — a single hub for the entire Francophone market.
Urban lighting expertise
Lyon invented modern urban decorative lighting (Fête des Lumières). The city’s specifiers are world leaders in façade and public-space lighting.
