Festi'Coat — Intergenerational French Song Festival
The intergenerational French song festival in the heart of Centre-Bretagne
About Festi'Coat
From convivial origins to an unmissable festival
Festi'Coat was born from a friendly outdoor gathering in Cornouaille, a spontaneous get-together of music and party enthusiasts that gave birth to a true festival. Located in Le Faouët, a small town of character in Centre-Bretagne, the event has grown from edition to edition to become a major musical event in Morbihan, while retaining its original spirit of conviviality and sharing.
An intergenerational festival under a marquee
Festi'Coat's uniqueness lies in its intergenerational nature. The programming is designed to bring together all generations: iconic French song artists like Soldat Louis, Les Fatals Picards, or Gérard Jaffrès share the stage with popular artists such as Fatal Bazooka, Yanns, Compagnie Créole, Superbus, or LEJ. The concerts take place under a large marquee, creating a warm atmosphere protected from the unpredictable Breton weather.
Tribute to Lili, co-founder of the festival
The 2025 edition was dedicated to Lili, co-founder and honorary president of the festival, who passed away in September 2024 at the age of 95. An emblematic figure of the event, Lili embodied the spirit of Festi'Coat: the passion for music, the joy of life, and the taste for intergenerational sharing. Her memory continues to inspire the team of volunteers who bring the festival to life.
Le Faouët: a heritage gem in Centre-Bretagne
The choice of Le Faouët as the festival location is no coincidence. This small town of character, known for its listed medieval market halls and remarkable chapels (including the famous Sainte-Barbe chapel), offers a picturesque and welcoming setting. The festival contributes to the summer entertainment of this inland Morbihan commune and participates in the enhancement of its cultural heritage.
An event driven by volunteering
Festi'Coat is entirely organized by volunteers, which gives it a rare authenticity and human warmth. From logistics to reception, from catering to security, every aspect of the festival is handled by a dedicated team that works year-round to offer the public two unforgettable days of celebration. This associative and participatory dimension is at the heart of the festival's identity.
