Festivals and cultural events Normandy

Every summer, the green beach comes alive, for 3 days, during this very appreciated and original festival. Completely free, this festival allows you to watch movies, quietly installed in a deckchair, on a towel or a chair, and in the open air. Let's bet that the choice of films will be, this year again, outstanding! As every year, the moment will be the occasion, before the film, to dance according to the music of a group come to interpret in live some pieces. Certainly one of the highlights of the summer in the capital of Cotentin.

Every year on 21 June, the festival is in full swing in the various districts of Rouen, which then dresses up in its best light to celebrate the music festival. The whole city centre vibrates to the varied rhythms of rock'n'roll, folk, reggae, pop or rap. Each time, the event attracts thousands of music lovers who travel from all over the region to attend the festivities. And, increasingly, the city tends to highlight its local artists by propelling them to the forefront.

The town of Darnétal has been hosting the comic book festival for about twenty years now. You just have to take the Teor (line 2) from Rouen city centre to reach the festival in only ten minutes. On the spot, hundreds of professionals and comic book fans meet in a friendly and festive atmosphere. New and used bookstores and temporary exhibitions are also present during this event, for the greatest pleasure of the enthusiasts!

Le Courtivore's mission is to promote a film genre that it feels is too often forgotten: the short film, those films that are less than 25 minutes long, including the credits. And the festival, which has been held every spring for 20 years, has been a great success. Beforehand, a call for films is opened, then a pre-selection is established. During three screenings, the public will vote for the films of their choice and these will go on to the final during a special evening at the Omnia République. An event for film lovers and budding artists!

The Curieux Printemps de Rouen festival is an exceptional event that offers an eclectic program, with many concerts, exhibitions, balls, but also visits and offbeat conferences on art and culture... And the big advantage of this event is that almost everything is free! The festival takes place every year throughout the month of May and allows you to discover some of the most unusual places in the city in an original way. Note that during this Curieux Printemps, the municipal museums are completely free during the Easter school holidays. A real invitation to culture.
