A rockabilly gathering in Touraine (2016-2018)
The Hillbilly Bop Festival was dedicated to 1950s American music—including rockabilly, country, hillbilly, and western swing—and was hosted in the Touraine countryside at Rouziers-de-Touraine, about ten kilometers north of Tours. It took place at the Espace culturel Les Quatre Vents.
Launched in 2016, the festival held its inaugural event that year, followed by a second in 2017, and a third and final edition from October 12 to 14, 2018. The festival aimed to bring top-tier rockabilly and country acts to the stage, some of whom had never performed in France before.
Beyond the concerts, each edition featured a vendor market (vintage clothing, decor, and records), Cajun and Tex-Mex food, a car & bike show displaying American and classic vehicles, and a flea market on Sunday.
