Mauves de Rire

8th Edition: A Weekend of Laughter

From October 10 to 12, 2025, the 8th edition of Mauves de Rire took over the Théâtre Le Vallon for a weekend rich in emotions and laughter. The festival confirmed its growing success with a carefully curated program blending established artists and new voices in comedy.

Friday evening inaugurated the festival with the Tremplin Jeunes Talents (Young Talent Competition), an evening dedicated to the new generation of comedy. Seven candidates, selected from over 120 applications, each had ten minutes to share their comedic universe and win over the audience.

Saturday hosted Blandine Lehout in her show La Vie de ta Mère and the family show “1 heure pour comprendre son ado” (1 hour to understand your teenager) with Camille Wehrlin, a new addition to this edition. On Sunday, Léo Hardt, the revelation of the 2024 competition, returned with his solo show L'écorché mou (The Soft Flayed One), a performance as impactful as it was sensitive, confirming his talent.
