Festival of contemporary music and emerging scene in La Bourboule
The Larsenik Festival is a free contemporary music festival held every winter at the Municipal Theater of La Bourboule, in the Puy-de-Dôme. For five days, ten free concerts highlight the richness of the regional emerging scene while inviting the discovery of national artists. From soul-funk to indie rock, from electro to reggae, the festival offers as many musical universes to explore in a friendly and accessible atmosphere for everyone.
The Larsenik Festival has established itself as an unmissable winter event on the Auvergne music scene. Held at the Théâtre municipal de La Bourboule, in the Sancy massif, this free festival offers five days of eclectic concerts every February, showcasing both emerging talents from the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region and established national artists.
With ten free concerts spread over five days, the Larsenik Festival offers a varied panorama of contemporary music. Genres cross and blend: soul, funk, independent rock, electronic music, reggae, dub, French chanson... Each edition is an opportunity to discover different musical universes, in an intimate and warm setting.
The Larsenik Festival draws its strength from its territorial roots. Driven by the cultural dynamism of the spa town of La Bourboule, in the heart of the Sancy massif, it offers a quality cultural alternative during the winter season. The exceptional setting of the Municipal Theater, with its Belle Époque architecture, gives the concerts a unique atmosphere, both intimate and festive.
The festival actively contributes to the town's winter animation, attracting local and tourist audiences seduced by the free admission, musical diversity, and conviviality of the event.
The Larsenik Festival stands out for its commitment to showcasing the regional emerging scene. Each edition reserves an important place for developing Auvergne artists, offering them valuable visibility alongside more established acts. This approach of discovering and supporting local musical creation makes Larsenik a committed cultural player in the region.
The 9th edition of the Larsenik Festival will be held from February 17 to 21, 2026, at the Municipal Theater of La Bourboule, with ten free concerts highlighting the regional emerging scene and national artists.
