Music events Franche-Comté

D'Jazz Nevers is a cultural association based in Nevers. It offers a varied program of jazz concerts throughout the year.

A few surprises and a return to basics for this event which will take place in Gevrey-Chambertin on June 24.

For its first edition in 2019, the VYV festival drew 20,000 people. Cancelled in 2020 - Covid obliges - it came back stronger than ever the following year with a 4-star program, like a slap in the face to gloom and the retreat of individualism. For three days in the heart of nature, we're treated to the pleasure of seeing musicians on stage. And to party! Except in 2024, when the organizers have decided to take a break and come back in 2025.

La Karrière is a spectacular place where nature and art meet. Center of artistic creation par excellence, managed by an association, it animates the territory of the Hautes Côtes de Nuit and makes music, graphic art and wine meet. Located on the site of an old stone quarry in Comblanchien, the theater and its monumental frescoes made on the face of size of over 12 meters impress. The cultural program is announced on the website and can be visited even outside of events.

The Nuits des Forêts festival returns to the National Forest Park from June 7 to 16, 2024 with a rich and varied program. On the program: nature outings, musical performances, handicraft events and nocturnal exhibitions allow you to familiarize yourself with the forest domain after dark. This annual festival not only raises awareness among young and old alike of the fragility of this natural environment, but also introduces them to the way it functions and its nocturnal particularities.

Summer never ends in Dijon, with all the musical and cultural events supported by the municipality. Created in 2021 to make the city center a lively and welcoming place to be during the summer months, the Jeudi'Jonnais saw a parade of the finest local bands and shows of all kinds. Concentrated in the city's main squares, including Place de la Libération, Place du Théâtre, Quartier des Halles, Place Emile Zola and even Jardin Darcy, Jeudi'Jonnais hosts more than four events each evening for young and old alike. Perfect for getting together for a drink or discovering the repertoires of local artists.

It's the kind of event you like to stumble across on the streets of Dijon. Every year, for a weekend in June, the Rhineland-Palatinate House blocks off the Rue Buffon for a giant open-air festival. For this ^26th edition, fans of German beers and delicatessen delicacies from across the Rhine will be catered for with dedicated stands. The Franco-German center also offers visitors the chance to discover German wine and pastries. A variety of musical groups and entertainment for young and old alike will ensure a good time!

2020 hosts the 11th edition of this festival, which offers a dozen free concerts in the bars and restaurants of the city, every Friday from 8pm.

The concerts take place on terraces (weather permitting), and feature all musical styles, from French variety to gypsy jazz, reggae or festive rock. Enough to spend a great summer!

30 years of existence for this festival of classical music, but not only... Over the years and through its programming, Les Fêtes Musicales de Corbigny has welcomed pieces from the purest classical repertoire to tangos from overseas, from virtuoso funk to rhythm & blues and European jazz rock. Sounds that are eclectic, to say the least, but that all resonate with the most classical chamber music. Unforgettable musical experiences to be enjoyed in the mineral setting of the Abbey of Corbigny, like the dream of sweet summer nights!

Les Folles Escales, part of the Les beaux bagages summer cultural season, is a delightful musical highlight to round off the summer in style at the end of August. Over the course of two evenings, the public is treated to the sounds of festive bands, inviting them to travel and dance. No huge headliners like in the big festivals, but some great names, like the Orchestre national de Barbès in 2024, and several local groups. A tasty moment of letting go, just a few weeks before the start of the new school year.
