A festival by the water
The Free Music Festival takes place in the exceptional natural setting of the Montendre lake, in Charente-Maritime. This bucolic site offers a perfect backdrop for a festive musical weekend, where spectators can enjoy concerts with their feet in the grass, by the water.
Eclectic programming
The festival offers a varied program that mixes different musical styles: reggae with artists like Biga*Ranx and his style influenced by Jamaican sounds, pop and French chanson with Claudio Capéo and his powerful voice, as well as other contemporary music artists. This diversity allows it to reach a wide audience and create a festive and friendly atmosphere.
A festival rooted in the region
Having become a musical reference in Aquitaine, the Freemusic Festival attracts thousands of festival-goers each year to enjoy the music, nature, and unique atmosphere of the shores of Montendre lake.
Camping and accommodation
Camping options are available at the heart of the lake or at Camping Domaine du Lac. For children aged 10 to 16, child tickets are offered with mandatory parental authorization at the entrance.
