A festival dedicated to strings

Created in 2022, the Festival Paleyrac'Cordes is a unique musical event in Périgord Noir, entirely dedicated to string instruments. Every year in June, the Théâtre de verdure in the hamlet of Paleyrac, in the commune of Le Buisson-de-Cadouin, hosts about thirty amateur groups and soloists from Dordogne and beyond.

All styles, one rule

The only condition for participation: the ensemble must include at least one string instrument. The result is an incredibly rich program, mixing pop, rock, folk, jazz, country, classical, funk, traditional, and world music. Since its creation, over 55 groups or soloists and 200 musicians have participated in the festival.

A free and friendly event

The festival is free and open to all. Four stages host artists throughout the day. Children's workshops, an artisan market, and a refreshment stand with food complete the offerings for a festive outdoor day in the green setting of Périgord Noir.
