The Les Oreilles en Pointe festival celebrated its 34th edition from November 6 to 16, 2025, confirming its status as the oldest song festival in the Saint-Étienne region. True to its role as a talent scout, this edition featured seven evenings of concerts in six venues spread across Saint-Étienne, Firminy, Le Chambon-Feugerolles, Fraisses, and Monistrol-sur-Loire.
The lineup brought together leading artists and discoveries: Dominique A, a key figure in independent French song, shared the bill with Roza, a Belgian artist. Coline Rio performed at the Maison de la culture in Firminy. Petit Tonnerre offered a matinee concert in Monistrol-sur-Loire. Charlie Winston, accompanied by the Canadian artist Ponteix, electrified Le Firmament in Firminy. Cécile Corbel, a Breton harpist of international renown, and Tibert closed the weekend at the Espace culturel Albert Camus in Le Chambon-Feugerolles. Finally, Grèn Semé, a band from Réunion, gave the closing concert at Salle Dorian in Fraisses.
The festival also presented Le Tour des Oreilles 2025, a showcase evening for emerging artists from the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region, as well as a youth workshop led by Ponteix.
