Pyrotechnic festival in Ille-et-Vilaine
The Festival du Feu (Fire Festival) is a grand sound and light pyrotechnic show held every late August at the Maure-de-Bretagne racecourse, in Val d'Anast (Ille-et-Vilaine). Presented as Brittany's largest pyrotechnic show, it combines fireworks, light displays, and fire artist performances in an immersive scenography.
The Festival du Feu takes place at the Maure-de-Bretagne racecourse, in the commune of Val d'Anast in Ille-et-Vilaine, about forty kilometers south of Rennes. The event is announced by its organizers as Brittany's largest pyrotechnic show.
The day and evening are organized around a craft market, a tavern, food trucks, musicians, and street artists, who create a festive atmosphere before the main event. At nightfall, an approximately one-hour pyrotechnic show combines fireworks, flames, lights, and special effects to tell a story with music β for the 2026 edition, the chosen theme is the birth of Earth.
The site is equipped to welcome the public in the evening (free parking, on-site catering, PRM access). Access is by reservation only, with no ticket sales on site.
