The exhibition "The Countries of the World Cup" invites you on a true world tour... with a football at your feet! Discover the cultures that make football come alive around the globe in this playful and colorful exhibition, specially designed for young audiences, highlighting the countries participating in the next World Cup. Along the panels, young and old explorers alike can locate each country on the map, learn key facts, and absorb their identity. Between geographical discoveries, surprising anecdotes, and nods to the world of football, everyone can enrich their knowledge while having fun… and perhaps even find their favorite team! The librarians have enhanced the exhibition with original sheets about emblematic animals, traditions, important figures, and some culinary specialties from around the world. Each country is represented by a mascot created by Belgian illustrator Laura Parisse. Curious to discover a traditional dance, a typical recipe, or a prominent personality? This exhibition is for you!
