Events calendar Colmar

Concerts, cinema, exhibitions, festivals, puppets: the Lézard association organizes contemporary art exhibitions that show the richness of local plastic creation. The association also develops a rich musical program inside and outside the walls, with the Grillen. It also programs film-debate evenings with the CGR on societal issues. Initiator of very popular festivals, in particular the Musiques métisses festival programmed each year in spring in various places, the Lézard is never short of playful and eclectic ideas.

The Triathlon Alsace Club de Colmar is behind Alsace's only swimrun to date. Held in early September at the Colmar-Houssen nautical base, this fun and sporting competition consists of a sequence of swims (schwim) and runs (run). Depending on your age and physical condition, you can choose from a range of options. The solo or relay race comprises 4 sequences of 2.3 km of running, each interspersed with 200 m of swimming. The Kids Discovery for 8/11 year-olds includes 50 m of swimming and 500 m of running, to be completed twice. And for 12/15 year-olds, there's 150 m of swimming and 1 km of running to do twice!
