Licence for the “Champs Libres” Festival 2024

A REGIONAL FESTIVAL FOR NATURE AND CULTURE LOVERS


Organized and coordinated by Atelier à spectacle, the 2nd edition of the multi-disciplinary CHAMPS LIBRES festival will be held throughout the region on Ascension weekend, from May 09 to 12, 2024.


Conceived and concocted with elected officials, residents and artists, this 4-day event will invite locals and tourists alike to enjoy festive moments and singular experiences, while discovering amazing places in the Pays de Dreux Agglo. An artistic program focused on the discovery of unusual and heritage sites awaits nature and culture lovers.


In this way, joyful, inventive and offbeat proposals take over and reinvent landscapes that are often little-known to local residents. Secular trees, verdant meadows, secret gardens... welcome a perched concert, love letters on bicycles or the inventiveness of contemporary circus...


The festival also offers a wide range of opportunities for socializing and sharing: festive concerts and wild dances, poetic aperitifs, karaoke lunch-canteens, artistic walks and unusual strolls...


The festival's conviviality is also underpinned by two flagship projects: We Can be Heroes, a playback street concert involving local residents, and We Can be Heroes, in which some 30 people will take on the role of “air-singers” in Nonancourt and Châteauneuf-en-Thymerais.


“Nature is but a spectacle of goodness”, Mauvais sang, Une Saison en enfer, Arthur Rimbaud, 1873


This new festival invites the public to become actors and singers too. We are all heroes, we all have poetry and dreams within us; dreams of living out human and poetic adventures together and on our magnificent territory...
