Kolenzik
The dub and reggae meeting of the Marne
About Kolenzik
Dub comes to Champagne
Since 2013, the Kolenzik festival has been making the bass vibrate in the Champagne countryside. Born in Villers-Marmery before settling in Beine-Nauroy, this unique festival has forged a strong identity around reggae, dub, and sound system cultures. Just twenty minutes from Reims, Kolenzik offers a unique musical interlude in a relaxed, rural setting.
A refined and generous program
Each edition of Kolenzik offers a carefully selected program that showcases the different facets of reggae and dub. Live stage, sound systems, DJ sets: the formats complement each other to offer a complete sound experience. The festival has hosted internationally renowned artists such as Asian Dub Foundation and Soom T, while also making ample room for discoveries and emerging artists.
Much more than a music festival
Kolenzik aims to be a committed and responsible event. Participatory workshops, ethical stalls, local food trucks: the festival offers a global experience that goes beyond music. The warm and welcoming atmosphere, driven by a team of passionate volunteers, makes each edition a moment of sharing and conviviality.
Strong local roots
Supported by the association Kol en Zik, based in Beine-Nauroy, the festival benefits from the support of the municipality and the Grand Reims urban community. This local anchoring translates into special attention paid to local producers and artisans, present on site through catering stalls and associative spaces.
