Les Enchanteurs

Les Enchanteurs: Song on tour in Hauts-de-France

Since 2001, the Les Enchanteurs festival has brought song and contemporary music closer to the inhabitants of Hauts-de-France. This unique traveling festival transforms everyday places into ephemeral concert halls for two months, creating improbable and unforgettable musical encounters.

A Singular Concept: Proximity Above All

The festival does not take place in conventional performance venues. It takes over village halls, media libraries, gymnasiums, community centers, and multi-purpose halls in towns of all sizes. This deliberate approach aims to bring musical culture to places where it does not usually go, promoting geographical and financial accessibility.

An Eclectic and Demanding Program

The strength of Les Enchanteurs lies in the diversity of its programming, which mixes established artists and emerging talents:

• French Song: singer-songwriters, poet singers, and new voices from the French-speaking scene.
• Rock and Punk: raw energy and electric concerts in intimate settings.
• Folk and Acoustic Music: guitars, violins, and vocal harmonies.
• World Music: Latin, African, Gypsy, and mixed sounds.
• Discoveries: young touring artists, opening acts, and open stages.

The Droit de Cité Association

Based in Aix-Noulette (Pas-de-Calais), the Droit de Cité association has been the driving force behind the festival since its inception. Active year-round, it works for cultural democratization and the animation of social connection in the rural and peri-urban areas of Hauts-de-France. Les Enchanteurs is its flagship event, but the association also organizes artist residencies and cultural activities throughout the year.

The Curious Pass

For the most regular festival-goers, the Pass Curieux allows access to several concerts in different towns at an advantageous rate, encouraging the discovery of new artists and new venues.
