Fun and entertainment Astarac

This cinema is splendid, because the room was built in the chapel of the old convent. An atypical site for a quality cultural output and if the festival animation is so rich in rural areas, it is certainly thanks to the association Cinema 32 that does not spare its efforts to be at top! In Masseube, she still works in this place where we love weekly animation sessions, especially for children under 13 years of age (and their parents!) but also the eclectic programming that goes from popular cinema to authors'movies. If national exits are present with the release of recent films, some older masterpieces return regularly to the screen. Don't miss anything by following the program on the site's answering machine, because in summer there are many special evenings.

This café-concert association keeps the city and its inhabitants moving outside the jazz festival. Pia and the team of volunteers organize themed meal-concerts. On the menu, jazz, salsa, rock, funk or flamenco... The stage is dedicated to world music. The menus are elaborated according to the musical style of the evening. In an affirmed approach of social and solidarity economy, the products privilege the short circuit and the small producers. La Peñac also offers game evenings, movie-debates, documentary screenings and various workshops.

Astrada means "destiny" in Occitan. Supported by the mayor of Marciac, Jean-Louis Guilhaumon, and the Jazz in Marciac association, the venue is designed to maintain the cultural momentum generated by the summer festival. Inaugurated in May 2011, this 500-seat venue with its carefully designed acoustics hosts concerts of jazz, classical and contemporary music, French chanson, theater, circus, dance and comedy throughout the year. It also hosts artists-in-residence and dance workshops.

Every year, Marciac plays host to the Jazz in Marciac festival. This festival is a major event for jazz fans, with a varied and internationally renowned program. Concerts take place in the main tent, where all seats are numbered. Reservations are recommended as soon as the ticket office opens, as places are limited. Discounts are available for groups, students, the unemployed, children under 12 and people with reduced mobility. In addition to concerts in the big top, there are also concerts at the Astrada, with reduced rates for young people and the unemployed.

This 800 m 2 room has nothing to envy the most famous cultural sites due to a rich season, proposed every year from November to April. In a modern setting, it can accommodate a little more than 900 people and thanks to the eclectic programming of the Mirande tourist office, they are every time taken over. Contemporary theatre or classic exhibits, grand galas of lyrical music, dance or international orchestras, opera, ballet, comical or dramatic: as long as the quality is at the meeting, the shows have a chance to enchant the places. Eight performances are usually organized, we love the spirit without frontiers that animates them and their selection. Do not hesitate to discover them on the city or EO website, they deserve a detour.
