Right in the heart of town, on the Cours Napoléon, this has been Ajaccio's historic cinema since the 1950s! The people of Ajaccio were delighted to find it refurbished, with all the comfort of the Ellipse cinema and the vintage spirit of a local cinema, where you can relax for a film and enjoy all the excitement. Three cinemas and a great program for all audiences, not forgetting children's films, arthouse screenings, catch-up screenings and, of course, current releases. View the program online.

Nestled inland on the eastern coast, island sculptor Véronique Gabrielli's garden has evolved over the years into a vast artistic bestiary of monumental sculptures. A veritable fantasy landscape evoking Burton and Monet, this exhibition park is open all year round. In summer, it becomes a scenic space combining theater and music. For the occasion, actor Aurélien Gabrielli, Véronique's son, and his former colleagues from the CNSDP stage a play from the repertory, to the delight of festival-goers.

This year, Île Rousse is hosting these three days of intensive racing, more than 225 km of events. The opportunity to explore splendid landscapes to discover Balagne, such as the unmissable Notre Dame de la Serra and its magnificent panorama of the city of Calvi.

On the programme: farmers and bakers will talk about their passion and demonstrate their know-how, there will be concerts and entertainment for the youngest. It will also be an opportunity to try making bread on site. A moment to enjoy!
