The Latin and festive party in the heart of the Lot
The Souillac en Bodega Festival is an unmissable festive event combining live music, entertainment, and a friendly atmosphere. Organized by Souillac's sports associations, this event celebrates festivities in a warm atmosphere with a varied program including music bands, DJ sets, and free sangria. Place Pierre Betz, facing the 12th-century abbey, transforms into a vibrant space where music lovers and night owls gather for a unique experience.
The Souillac en Bodega Festival was born from the initiative of the Souillac sports associations — Tennis, Espadon, Cycling, Rugby, and Handball — who had been organizing friendly bodega evenings for several years on Place Pierre Betz. In 2024, the event took the form of a festive evening with a banda aperitif, a bar, and music hosted by Bodega Tour. Building on the success of this edition, the organizers decided to structure the event into a true two-day festival starting in 2025, under the name Festival Souillac en Bodega.
The festival takes place on Place Pierre Betz, a large esplanade located in the heart of Souillac, facing the Sainte-Marie Abbey, a jewel of 12th-century Romanesque art. This unique heritage setting gives the event a special atmosphere, blending historical heritage with festive effervescence. Food trucks and a bar complete the open-air bodega ambiance.
The festival's program features Latin music, rock, and world sounds, in a spirit of celebration and sharing. Each edition offers live concerts, DJ sets, and participatory entertainment such as the distribution of free sangria.
The first official edition of the festival was held on June 6 and 7, 2025, with an energetic program:
For its second edition, the festival evolves under the name Festi'Souillac with the slogan “Rock, Latino & DJ Sets”. Scheduled for June 5 and 6, 2026, the concerts include Soa Bomba, Léman, JLow, U2 Revolution, Milisax, and an additional artist to be confirmed, offering three concerts per evening facing the abbey.
Souillac en Bodega embodies the associative and solidarity spirit of the commune. The five sports associations that carry the project — Tennis, Espadon (swimming), Cycling, Rugby, and Handball — pool their strengths and volunteers to offer Souillac and the Dordogne Valley a festive highlight at the beginning of summer. The event is supported by the City of Souillac and local partners.
The festival takes place on Place Pierre Betz, in the town center of Souillac (Lot, 46), in the Occitanie region, facing the Sainte-Marie Abbey.
The festival runs from 5:30 PM to 2:30 AM each night. Food trucks and the bar open at 5:30 PM, concerts start in the evening.
