The Grand Bivouac Festival 2020
the festival was able to take place, certainly in very restrictive conditions in this year 2020 of pandemic, but it did take place!
"we are pleased to have seen tears, smiles, sincere, touching, profound words from several thousand spectators welcomed, all wiser, respectful, responsible and understanding of the devices and arrangements implemented..."
Jean Sébastien Esnault, general delegate of the Grand Bivouac festival
Congratulations to the whole team of the festival who knew how to realize with tenacity and inventiveness, special facilities for face-to-face version and an innovative digital version!
