Bougnat Sound Festival

Bougnat Sound Festival: The Energy of Electronic Music in the Heart of Puy-de-Dôme

Since 2013, the Bougnat Sound Festival has animated the town of Saint-Éloy-les-Mines every year with a musical program focused on electronic music, dub, reggae, and sound system cultures. Entirely organized by a team of passionate volunteers, this human-sized festival has built a loyal and diverse audience, attracted by the quality of the programming and the friendly atmosphere of the event.

Three Stages for All Styles

Bougnat Sound stands out with its three stages offering complementary musical universes:

• Main Stage: Live concerts of reggae, dub, hip-hop, and world music
• Electro Stage: Techno, hardtek, psytrance, jungle, and acid
• Sound System: Outdoor dub and reggae sessions

A Friendly and Festive Festival

Beyond the music, the Bougnat Sound Festival offers a complete festival experience with a swimming area at the lake, relaxation and catering areas, and on-site camping. The atmosphere is resolutely festive and family-friendly, with a spirit of sharing and musical discovery.

Over the years, the festival has hosted renowned artists such as Asian Dub Foundation, Neg'Marrons, Brain Damage, and Heretik System, confirming its position as a major festival on the alternative scene in the Massif Central.

Exemplary Volunteer Commitment

The strength of Bougnat Sound lies in its 100% volunteer organization. Each year, dozens of volunteers mobilize to bring the event to life, from logistics and technical aspects to catering and reception. This collective commitment gives the festival its authenticity and human warmth, making each edition a unique moment of sharing and conviviality.
