Festivals and cultural events Rhône-Alpes

The Saint Etienne Design Biennial is bringing the city to international attention. The 2022 edition is interested in forks in the road, through six exhibitions taking the side roads to "choose the essential", the subtitle for this year. Don't forget to browse through the Biennial Off through a hundred or so events. All of which will provide food for thought for Saint-Etienne's double labeling by UNESCO as a "Creative Design City" and "Inclusive City".

L'Atelier du Réverbère is a training center located in Ambérieu-en-Bugey, in the Ain department. It offers training courses and shows focusing on the art of storytelling and the spoken word.

In recent years, Annecy's landscapes have been enriched by artistic works linking elements of the local heritage, starting with nature and architecture. Year after year, summer after summer, a perennial trail of artistic and landscape installations has been built up in the urban area. There are some twenty works to be discovered as you stroll through the city with a poetic eye. A "sustainable" festival that renews itself every season to change our perception of our environment, inspiring all passers-by to preserve and improve it. A word of advice: prepare your itinerary (it's best to bike) or let yourself be surprised!

Concerts in August. A centrepiece of cultural life, the Apple-en-Forez site has a strong tradition of musical production (concerts, recordings…) and a dynamic of growing recovery. The church has been able to retain its device of acoustic vases so that both the avertis and the occasional amateurs of concerts are of by the acoustic quality. It arouses a lot of enthusiasm from all renowned professional musicians.
