Perche en Rock

Rock settles in Perche

Born in 2022, the Perche en Rock festival has quickly established itself as a must-attend event for amplified music in Normandy. Located at the ferme du Boistier, in the municipality of Préaux-du-Perche (Perche-en-Nocé), the event focuses on a curated program mixing rock, indie, post-punk, garage, and experimental music, in a spirit of discovery and sharing.

Demanding programming

Each edition brings together about ten bands over two days with complementary styles. The artistic direction favors coherence over abundance, allowing each act to express itself fully to an attentive audience. Artists like Full Moon Little House have marked past editions with their sensitive and immersive approach, between carefully crafted compositions and worked atmospheres.

An intimate format

Unlike large open-air festivals, Perche en Rock cultivates proximity. The deliberately limited capacity allows for direct interaction between musicians and festival-goers, in the spirit of clubs and alternative scenes. This philosophy is reflected in the very organization of the event, driven by a team of enthusiasts rooted in the territory.

An exceptional natural setting

The Boistier farm offers a remarkable rural setting, between the hedgerows and hills of Perche. The site is ideally suited for a human-scale festival where music resonates in a preserved environment. Festival-goers enjoy the Norman countryside while discovering current and bold sounds.

Catering and conviviality

On-site, local catering stands and a bar offer products from the Perche region. The relaxed and warm atmosphere makes each edition a moment of sharing around music and Norman gastronomy.

A committed festival

Perche en Rock is part of an eco-responsible approach, with particular attention paid to waste management, short supply chains for catering, and limiting the event's environmental footprint. The festival also contributes to the cultural dynamism of Perche by attracting an audience from all over Normandy and beyond.
