Another small festival that is taking place in Normandy. The first edition’s line up had impressed everyone, and once again this year, it is a serious competition to bigger festivals like Art Rock, Les Papillons de Nuit or Les Vieilles Charrues. John, as regulars call it, blends French and local bands- which are not headlining- to world and indie music. The bar and camping will be busy, with a great atmosphere and people partying- the Norman way of course!

Back in 2010, we went to the as volunteers and it had been a great experience. They know too how to mix genres and audiences. The technical team is the best and the scenery is dreamy - you’re literally dancing on the beach. The camping is messy but you have to try it and go to the before party- there are not many people partyng, but it is rad! Everyone will be pleased and you’ll be even more delighted if you enjoy dancing on a good rock song.
