51st Edition — July 22 to 27, 2025

For its 51st edition, the Festival Les Cultures du Monde welcomed groups from around the world to the town of Gannat. For six days, traditional dance and music performances followed one another at the socio-cultural center and on the Place du Festival, accompanied by parades in traditional costumes through the town streets.

The program also included participatory dance workshops, exhibitions dedicated to intangible heritage, conferences, a craft market, and activities for children. Nearly 500 volunteers contributed to the organization of this edition, remaining true to the spirit of openness and solidarity that has characterized the festival since its creation in 1974.
