14 Jul 01 - 09:19 AM (#506331) Subject: RE: Help: Brittany Folk Festivals From: GUEST,Philippa I was at L'Orient last year and didn't enjoy it - very big and commercial. But just about everywhere you will find "Fest Noz" at weekends, small festivals with everyone dancing in the park, very nice. Look for posters plus ask at tourist offices, & ask around generally. There are web sites about festivals in Brittany ... I might get back to you with URLs, or you can try your own search. I seem to recall there used to be a festival in Quimper. Any one know of it? |

14 Jul 01 - 10:05 AM (#506352) Subject: RE: Help: Brittany Folk Festivals From: GUEST http://www.bretagne-sud.com/ has a very short list of Fest Noz (under which it includes the huge Lorient!)as well as a listing for fetes. That just for the south of Brittany of course; which part are you going to? There may also be listings in the newspaper http://www.bretagne-online.com/ another general site which you can search for listings is http://www.breizhoo.fr but a lot of small local events which are so enjoyable would not be listed on the web |

14 Jul 01 - 01:58 PM (#506464) Subject: RE: Help: Brittany Folk Festivals From: Mrs.Duck Official Ouimper Festival Site (in French) This will give you the full programme for the festival which starts on Saturday 21st July and ends on Sunday 29th. We will be in Brittany from 21st for 2 weeks staying near Morlaix and will certainly be getting to the festival for at least one day but until we get there we don't know which day. Would have no objection to meeting up with anyone who knows they are going but once we leave here we will be out of reach of a computer. |

21 Jun 02 - 07:57 PM (#734505) Subject: RE: Help: Brittany Folk Festivals From: GUEST,Philippa www.antourtan.org hosts cyber-fest noz. They also give information of other cites where you can learn about festivals and/or hear Breton music. This is from the laters antouran bulletin. If you use audial you might enjoy some of the websites even if you don't understand French. Maybe I'll translate later, but this is basically just a listing: "Festival de Cornouaille à Quimper, Interceltique de Lorient, Vieilles Charrues de Carhaix, Tombées de la Nuit de Rennes et Saint-Loup de Guingamp : voilà les membres de l'association "Cinq festivals pour un été". Comme l'an passé, An Tour Tan sera présente à chacune de ces manifestations, sans oublier bien sûr le Mondial Folk de Plozévet ou encore le Festival du Bout du Monde...
"Nous vous proposons d'ores-et-déjà un aperçu des programmes des Festivals de l'été dans notre rubrique Actualités.
An Tour Tan sera également sur le pont vendredi 21 juin pour la Fête de la Musique. Dans la nuit du 21 au 22, vous pourrez donc découvrir dans notre page actualités les meilleurs moments des différentes manifestations oganisées à Kemper : jazz, musique moderne, traditionnelle... Toutes les tendances seront représentées.
Enfin, nous vous rappelons que la rubrique Cyber Fest Noz n°4 est désormais en ligne, avec, depuis aujourd'hui, la nouvelle affiche de ce cru 2002.
