Festivals and cultural events Côte Aquitaine

The ^3rd edition of the Festival Ciné-Notes, which takes place at the Grand Théâtre, was cancelled in 2020 because of the coronavirus. It was dedicated to "Monsters and Creatures" with Jean-Jacques Annaud as guest of honor. On the program was a symphonic concert, but also an exceptional film-concert of E.T. the Extra-terrestrial by Steven Spielberg with the sublime music of John Williams live. To open the festival, some of the greatest film music should have been performed by the Bordeaux Aquitaine National Orchestra: Gremlins, Les Dents de la mer, Jurassic Park, Frankenstein, La Mouche, La Belle et le Bête... This festival covers a wide range of very famous films with emblematic music, but also several eras of cinema, thus reaching a vast audience, both novice and music-lover. The programme also includes film lectures, film screenings with musical introductions, a jazz concert, etc.

For a long weekend, the street arts - including theater, music, circus arts and visual arts - take over the town of Rions. An ideal medieval setting for this event dedicated to the arts. Let yourself be carried away by this festival, stroll through the streets of Rions and meet the artists. Above all, keep your eyes and ears wide open, and you'll see, your smile will never leave your face. All audiences will be touched by the artists present during these three days of July: dance, theater, music, circus workshops...

For its^2nd edition, the Biarritz festival aims above all to reveal the cinematic talents of tomorrow, and put the spotlight on the work of budding, emerging and established filmmakers. For 5 days, a jury of artists under the age of 35 will share with the public theatrical and open-air screenings, concerts, exhibitions and meetings with guests of honor. The festival may just be the place to discover the great filmmakers of tomorrow.
