The invention relates to an actuation arrangement (10) for a motor vehicle with a detection device (18, 22) for detecting a gesture of a vehicle occupant. A lighting device serves to illuminate a passenger compartment of the motor vehicle. A control device (20) controls the lighting device as a function of the detected gesture. The lighting device comprises a plurality of light sources (14, 16) which are arranged in a row and thus form a light band (12). A width (B) of the light band is less than a length (L) of the light band (12). The control device (20) is designed to change a switching state of at least one of the light sources (14, 16) of the light band (12) as a function of the detected gesture. Furthermore, the invention relates to a motor vehicle with such an actuation arrangement (10).
