Edition 2025 — Y'a de la Joie
The 4th edition of the Y'a de la Joie en chansons festival was held from August 8 to 12, 2025, in Gramat, marked by the return of opera with an ambitious production of Carmen Al-Andalus, blending singing, dancing, and an orchestra with Arab-Andalusian influences.
4th edition - The return of opera to Gramat
The 2025 edition of the Y'a de la Joie en chansons festival offered five evenings from August 8 to 12, with a rich program combining sung poetry, French song, lyrical comedy, Spanish music, and opera. The highlight of this edition was the production of Carmen Al-Andalus, a bold reinterpretation of Bizet's opera with Arab-Andalusian accents.
The program also included Poète… Vos papiers ! with Éric Perez, Salvador et Monsieur Henri as a musical duo around Henri Salvador, Jubilación, Jubilación a lyrical comedy by the Cam Del Art company, and L'Espagne en musique at the Grand Couvent.
