Off Festival - Events at the TADAMM! Village

This commitment has taken shape through the continuation of a guide for young audiences over the past four editions, followed by the organization of arts-in-practice workshops for children during the festival. The 2025 edition was marked by the opening of a new venue, which is back this year: the TADAMM! Village, a village for children and families located at the École Simone Veil (the former site of the Village du Off). On the program: educational and hands-on art workshops, previews of performances, a social area, a bookstore, a bar with light refreshments, and spaces for relaxation, rest, and play. An oasis dedicated to children and youth right in the heart of the festival! What can you find at the TADAMM! Village? - Information and Ticket Desks Need something? Have a question?
