Festival de la Forêt Fantastique

The Festival de la Forêt Fantastique: A Vosges Enchantment

Nestled in the Vit Tel Ta Nature forest park, between Vittel and Contrexéville, the Festival de la Forêt Fantastique transforms the Vosges forest into an open-air fantasy kingdom every late summer. Created in 2019 by the Vit Tel Ta Nature cooperative, this free and accessible festival offers a true journey into a universe blending fantasy, medieval, and nature, in the heart of an exceptional green setting.

Immersive Themed Villages

The festival is organized around several villages along the forest paths. The Druids' Village, located in the heart of the pine forest, hosts wellness and divination professionals offering treatments, demonstrations, and introductory workshops. The Artisans' Village brings together local creators and producers around the central roundabout, featuring unique pieces of art craftsmanship, jewelry, soaps, and local Vosges products. The Sculptors' Village offers a fascinating spectacle with artists carving wood live in front of the park's aviaries.

A Rich and Family-Friendly Program

The weekend opens on Friday evening with a friendly barbecue-karaoke, before fully unfolding its program on Saturday and Sunday. Visitors can wander between the local producers' market, food trucks, and the artisanal bar, while enjoying various activities for all ages. Creative and wellness workshops punctuate the day, while concerts by local artists liven up the festive village stage late into the night.

A Committed Festival Rooted in its Territory

Led by the Vit Tel Ta Nature cooperative, the Festival de la Forêt Fantastique embodies a festive and ecological vision of entertainment. Free and open to all, it highlights the talents and producers of the Vosges region while raising public awareness about forest preservation. On Sunday, a flea market complements the offerings and attracts bargain hunters and curious visitors from the early morning hours. This back-to-school event has become, in just a few editions, a must-see on the Vosges festival calendar.
