Festi'Vire

The free musical event of Vire Normandie

Festi'Vire has become an unmissable summer event in Vire Normandie. This free festival, organized by the City of Vire Normandie, takes over the Place du Château every year to offer an open-air concert in a festive and popular atmosphere. Dedicated to popular dances and guinguettes, the event is part of the tradition of Norman popular festivals.

Giant picnic and open-air concert

Festi'Vire's formula is simple and friendly: from 6:15 PM, the Place du Château opens to the public for a giant picnic. Families and groups of friends set up with their picnic baskets to enjoy the atmosphere. The main concert starts at 9:15 PM with a program that varies each year, ranging from French variety to musical shows.
