This is the 4th edition of this young folk festival that increases in scale. And for hosting it, there is no more beautiful place than Florenville and its « Ferme des Roses » farm, located in the middle of the countryside between Chassepierre (the artists' city) and Chiny (the tales' city), and these towns are two Meccas for culture, street arts and stage arts. For who? For everybody... The festival has a vocation to be familial and open to everybody, with activities and dance for the youngest ones, and some concerts and folk balls for the elders. The schedule will delight the most trained dancers and initiations will enable the starters, even the most shy ones, to taste the pleasure of group or couple dances ! Come in a great number for putting your feet in the steps of Djean d'Mâdy and of his famous feast mates ! Dancing together only for pleasure… Free camping place for festival-goers, craft market during the week-end and « discovery » price on Sunday June 30.

OUR THEME : REST'ART Recycling, Zéro Waste are notions that come to be part of our everyday life vocabulary. How can Art get integrated in this vision that is more friendly for our environnement ? « Nothing is lost, nothing is created, everything is transformed » ! This aphorism that is said to be Lavoisier's one takes on its full meaning in the very concept of upcycling. The idea is easy : tansforming a material, no matter which one, into an item that has value.
