A festival born from local commitment

Created in 2021 at the Parc de Loisirs de La Blanche, in Chéméré (municipality of Chaumes-en-Retz), FestiChaumes is the result of a collective dynamic bringing together the AFR de Chéméré (Animation and Rural Festivals), L'Étoile Arthonnaise, the municipality of Chaumes-en-Retz, local associations, and passionate volunteer residents. Conceived by and for the residents of the area, the festival is co-constructed each year with associations, artists, and elected officials, in an approach of citizen participation and valorization of the richness of local commitment.

Music, street arts, and conviviality

The FestiChaumes program combines contemporary music concerts, street performances, artistic parades, participatory workshops, an open stage, a dance revisiting traditional dances (waltz, madison, tango), and theater plays performed by children and adults. Each edition brings together emerging and established artists, street companies, musicians, circus performers, and dancers in a warm and family-friendly atmosphere.

The festival hosts both professional groups and amateur practices, highlighting the diversity of talents from the region and beyond. The performances unfold outdoors in the park's green setting, offering an immersive and festive experience accessible to all ages.

Access to culture for all

FestiChaumes is part of a strong commitment to access to culture for everyone: admission is completely free, with no ticketing or reservation required. The festival is sustained by the sale of food and drinks on site, the support of institutional partners, and the work of volunteers who invest themselves throughout the year to keep this unifying event alive.

An event that is growing

Since its first edition in 2021, FestiChaumes has continued to grow, evolving from a single-day event to a multi-day festival offering a dozen performances, concerts, and activities. The fifth edition in 2025 notably featured Les Wriggles, Hop Hop Hop Crew, Wassa Percussion, Runo la Camioneta, and Germaine, confirming the ambition of an eclectic program blending humor, world music, festive rock, and street arts.
