On Saturday 28 November 2026 at 17:30 the Médiathèque Till L'Espiègle in Villeneuve-d'Ascq hosts a blind test on the theme of Thrillers. The listing describes it as a film, series and soundtrack blind test, held for the closing evening of L'affaire novembre, the library's November programme. Visitors are invited to measure themselves against the greatest criminals of the screen, guessing the extracts they hear and recognise. The address is 96 Chaussée de l'Hôtel de Ville, and the session is listed from 17:30 to 19:00. Entry is free according to the listing, which also marks the event as open to all audiences, and it mentions no booking requirement. Because a blind test is played as a shared game, newcomers find it easy to join in on their own, whether they stay in a team or simply listen. A quiz like this is easy to enjoy alone, since everyone in the room is there to guess the same extracts and compare answers. «mesurez-vous aux plus grands criminels lors du Blind-test ciné, séries, B.O. ! Gratuit - Tout public» Starts 17:30, ends about 19:00. Source: OpenAgenda — Médiathèque de Villeneuve d'Ascq (open data). The listing says the event is free and open to all.
