Avignon in July: theatre at its best!

Énergie créatrice, talents multiples, lieux propices à l’éveil culturel, Avignon, terre de festivals vibre tout au long de l’année ! Du Festival d’Avignon créé en 1947 par Jean Vilar, au bouillonnant OFF, en passant par Villeneuve en Scène, pas une parcelle du territoire ne vibre au son des applaudissements. En juillet, le monde est une scène.
