Festive, free and rural festival in the heart of the Petite Montagne du Jura
Since 1990, the Bouche à Oreille Festival has taken over the village of Orgelet and the communes of the Petite Montagne du Jura every summer. Organized by the association Adapemont, this free and rural festival offers four days of concerts, shows, creative workshops, musical naps, blind tests, a children's village, and a giant fondue. Multidisciplinary and popular, it celebrates conviviality, artistic discovery, and encounters in a rural setting.
The Bouche à Oreille Festival is a cultural event rooted in the territory of the Petite Montagne du Jura, in Orgelet and surrounding communes. Since 1990, it has brought together residents and visitors every summer for a free, festive, and eclectic program.
The Bouche à Oreille Festival offers a rich and varied program: contemporary music concerts, live performances, creative and digital workshops, musical naps, aperitif blind tests, children's village, association market, and the famous giant fondue. This diversity is the signature of a festival that caters to all audiences and ages.
Set up in the public spaces of Orgelet, particularly the Sous l'orme square, the festival cultivates a spirit of rural conviviality. Activities unfold in the streets, squares, and gardens of the village, creating a warm and intimate atmosphere. A recycling area and a second-hand shop complete the offerings, in a spirit of sustainable development and solidarity.
The festival has been driven since its origins by the association Adapemont, based in Orgelet. This local development and animation structure works year-round for the cultural and social life of the Petite Montagne, with the Bouche à Oreille Festival being its annual highlight.
