Coordinated by the Lodève media library and supported by the Communauté de communes Lodévois et Larzac, the event brings together around twenty cultural actors from the region every year in March.

A month of poetry throughout the territory

Rather than a festival concentrated in a single location, the Printemps des Poètes in Lodévois and Larzac is experienced as a journey: readings, meetings with authors, poetic performances, musical tales, songs, dances, writing and voice workshops, and exhibitions follow one another throughout March in several communes of Lodévois and Larzac.

An event rooted in its territory

Located in the heart of Hérault, in Occitanie, the event highlights the heritage and cultural life of Lodève and the surrounding villages. Between the Mediterranean coast and the Larzac plateau, the Lodévois and Larzac territory offers a setting conducive to the encounter between poetry and the public, from enlightened enthusiasts to the simply curious.

A friendly gathering

The Printemps des Poètes in Lodévois and Larzac is above all a moment of sharing. The complete program, rich with around twenty shows and meetings, participatory workshops and exhibitions, is communicated each year by the Communauté de communes and the Lodève media library.
