Jardin Sonore Festival

An eclectic festival in the heart of Provence

The Jardin Sonore Festival is a summer music event that takes place every year in July in the green setting of the Domaine de Fontblanche in Vitrolles. Created in 2018 by Village42, an event production company founded in 2012 and specializing in music programming across the South of France, the festival has quickly established itself in the PACA region's festival landscape thanks to its bold and eclectic programming.

Three stages, three atmospheres

The uniqueness of Jardin Sonore lies in its ability to host very different musical styles on three distinct stages, offering three complementary atmospheres. From rock to rap, from electro to French chanson, from reggae to pop, the festival programs about thirty groups and artists over several evenings, allowing festival-goers to move from one sound universe to another according to their desires. This diversity is the hallmark of Jardin Sonore, which rejects any musical compartmentalization.

Headliners and discoveries

The festival combines international headliners and discoveries, offering a showcase for emerging artists while guaranteeing memorable moments with renowned names. The Domaine de Fontblanche, with its tree-lined park amidst pine trees, offers an exceptional natural setting where music resonates under the Provençal stars. Food stalls, bars, and relaxation areas complete the festival experience.

Village42, driving force behind the southern music scene

Village42, the company behind the Jardin Sonore Festival, is a major player in the music scene in the South of France. With over 50 concerts organized each year in 15 different venues in the PACA and Occitanie regions, Village42 masters the art of diverse music programming. The company also produces Les Nuits d'Istres and programs in venues ranging from 150-capacity clubs to 12,000-capacity stadiums, expertise that is reflected in the professional organization of Jardin Sonore.

Easy access for everyone

The festival makes it a point of honor to facilitate festival-goers' access to the site. Free parking is available near the Domaine de Fontblanche, and free shuttles run between the Grand Vitrolles (Carrefour) parking lot and the estate, with rotations every 15 minutes at the beginning and end of the evening. This careful logistics contributes to making Jardin Sonore an accessible and friendly festival.
