This picture shows the creative 26-27 font applied to the reverse of the OL home jersey.
Each squad number is reimagined as an illuminated candle sitting within a traditional glass tumbler (lumignon), crowned by a glowing yellow flame at the peak.
Inside the numbers, an intricate collage showcases nighttime cityscapes, bursts of celebratory fireworks, recognizable landmarks like the Basilica of Notre-Dame de Fourvière, and subtle artistic references honoring both the club and the charity.
Completing the look, the player names on the upper back are styled in deep navy with glowing warm light reflections.
Every December, the Lumignons du Cœur campaign invites locals and visitors to purchase candles to support a selected non-profit.
The special project formally launches around Lyon's Ligue 1 encounter against AS Monaco on Sunday, November 29, 2026, at Groupama Stadium.
Supporters can pre-order the 26-27 home jersey with the Fête des Lumières printing exclusively through the official OL online store between November 10 and November 15, 2026.
