French song contest in Aix en Provence takes place at the beginning of October.
Aix en Provence villa holiday visitors can enjoy the annual Festival de la chanson Francais from the 1 to 8 of October. This festival was designed to give emerging stars the boost they need to make it on the big stage.
It embraces the idea of allowing young up and coming artists to mix with established acts and music industry aficionados in front of a large audience, all with an aim of exchanging ideas and creative development.
The Festival de la chanson francaise du Pays d’Aix encourages a large audience by maintaining low ticket prices, particularly for the 3 to 8 year old age bracket. So this event does attract families.
For more information see the festival-chanson-francaise.com web site and maybe get along and see some performances.
A holiday in Provence in October can be really enjoyable and if late September temperatures continue to be above the norm it will be even better this year. It’s not too late to book a south of France villa holiday for October.
