The Blue Festival: A Weekend Of Celebration In The Heart Of The Vercors!
On July 26 and 27, the Fête du Bleu sets up in Méaudre for a weekend dedicated to rural life, agriculture, and friendliness. Discover an event full of activities and encounters!
An Event at the Heart of Traditions
The "Fête du Bleu" is not just a simple agricultural gathering. It's a true crossroads of exchange and discovery where the richness of the Vercors territory is celebrated. The program includes demonstrations of ancient techniques such as "threshing with a flail", "wood-fired bread baking", and the exhibition of "vintage tractors", a return to the roots for both young and old!
Activities for All Ages
The children will also be part of the celebration! Workshops supervised by the team from Agopop await them: animal prints, wooden games, and face painting done by the talented Jessica Escamez. A wonderful way to spark their curiosity while having fun and receiving thoughtful attention.
Citizen Meetings and Initiatives
Beyond the festivities, the "Fête du Bleu" also highlights local initiatives such as those from "Vercors Citoyens," which listens to the concerns of residents to build a sustainable future together. "Ecout’Agri" will also be there to provide support to farmers in difficulty. These participatory discussions are essential for shaping the future of our community.
Workshops and Conferences on Committed Themes
The range of activities is expanding with lectures on various topics, such as lacto-fermentation preservation, and introductory workshops on bobbin lace by the association Picouline dentelle. An opportunity to learn while having fun and discovering traditional skills.
Art and Culture on the Agenda
The artistic program is equally rich, featuring an exhibition of works by Lisa Marie Dubiez and a photo exhibition by Olivier Teilhard that captures the majesty of the vultures of Vercors. The Vertconteurs will also bring local legends to life to enchant the audience.
An Energetic Show
Troup'akada will set the streets of Méaudre ablaze with its batucada, promising a festive and colorful atmosphere. Dancing, catchy rhythms, and a collective mobilization to brighten spirits!
Macadam Farmer: A Concert Not to Be Missed
You won't be left out with the Macadam Farmer concert that will transport you into a revisited musical universe, blending folk, rock, and swing. A novel way to rediscover timeless hits in a completely offbeat and festive atmosphere!
Nighttime Ambiance with DJ Ganzou
And to end the evening in style, let yourself be swept away by DJ Ganzou who will have you dancing until the early hours with a variety of mixes from afrobeat to funky, with hints of hip-hop and disco. Get ready to groove to energetic rhythms!
