Festival Musics in exile

Beginning of the concerts : 8.30 pm and 4.30 pm for the young-audience-friendly show

Opening of the doors 1h30 before concerts.

Music in exile aims to celebrate the exiled populations’ countries of origin as well as the countries that receive them.

The programme approaches themes that are sometimes painful, but always underlines that music, poetry and dance harbour energy and optimism. From Syria to Venezuela, from Europe to South Africa, this festival paints a large geographic and cultural panorama, through concerts and encounters, just like the diversity of debates that open up migration.
