Festival in Ille-et-Vilaine
La Route du Rock - Winter Collection is a contemporary music festival that takes place annually in late winter in Saint-Malo, Ille-et-Vilaine (Brittany), with additional dates in Rennes. It is the winter counterpart to the legendary summer Route du Rock, organized since 1991 by the Rock Tympans association.
The event sets up at La Nouvelle Vague in Saint-Malo, a reference venue for standing concerts, and extends to other locations in the urban area: L'Antipode and the cinema L'Arvor in Rennes, as well as La Grande Passerelle in Saint-Malo for meetings and conferences.
Each edition brings together established artists from the international independent scene and emerging young bands. Over the years, the Winter Collection has become an essential event at the start of the winter season for lovers of demanding rock, pop, and electronic music.
The detailed program, schedules, and ticketing information are published annually on the festival's official website.
