Immersive pyrotechnic festival at Domaine de Vermoise in Sainte-Maure, near Troyes
The Pyro'Festival, born in 2022 at Domaine de Vermoise in Sainte-Maure, has quickly established itself as a must-attend event in the festive landscape of Aube. Just 10 minutes from Troyes, this new kind of festival offers an immersive pyrotechnic show that transcends traditional fireworks to become a true artistic and sensory experience. Each edition attracts between 3,000 and 4,000 spectators to the rural and bucolic setting of Domaine de Vermoise, blending the beauty of the fires with the magic of an open-air evening.
The heart of the Pyro'Festival is a three-act show orchestrated by the best French pyrotechnicians, who command thousands of shots above Domaine de Vermoise. Each act unfolds its own theme, with pyrotechnic choreographies synchronized to a carefully composed soundtrack. Each year, a new theme renews the experience: after the cinema edition in 2025, the 5th edition in 2026 offers a world tour in three acts, stop by stop (Europe, Africa & Eastern Europe, Asia, United States, Brazil). This magnificent staging transforms the night sky into a giant screen of lights, colors, and emotions.
The Pyro'Festival stands out for its competitive format: three of the best French pyrotechnicians compete, and a public vote, combined with an expert jury, designates the best act of the evening. The winning pyrotechnician is invited to return for the next edition. This participatory format strengthens spectator involvement and adds a fun dimension to the experience. Between the pyrotechnic acts, spectators can vote, interact, and enjoy the festive atmosphere that reigns over the estate.
The Pyro'Festival is much more than just a fireworks show. From 7 PM, the estate gates open to an opening concert and a village of food trucks offering a varied and gourmet selection of food. After the pyrotechnic show, the evening continues with a DJ set that keeps festival-goers dancing until the gates close, transforming Domaine de Vermoise into a true dance floor under the stars.
The 5th edition of the Pyro'Festival will be held on Saturday, September 26, 2026 at Domaine de Vermoise, in Sainte-Maure, 10 minutes from Troyes. On the theme of a world tour in three acts, the immersive pyrotechnic show takes the audience to five destinations (Europe, Africa & Eastern Europe, Asia, United States, Brazil), presented by three of the best French pyrotechnicians in competition. Opening concert, public vote, food trucks and DJ set after-party.
For its 5th edition, the Pyro'Festival returns on Saturday, September 26, 2026 to Domaine de Vermoise, in Sainte-Maure (10), and offers a new immersive theme: taking the audience on a world tour without jet lag, for one evening. The pyrotechnic show is structured into three acts, each conceived as a creative challenge where technique and art merge.
The journey proposed in 2026 stops in five worlds: Europe, Africa & Eastern Europe, Asia, United States, and Brazil. Three of the best French pyrotechnicians compete, each deploying their signature, sensitivity, and sense of spectacle, with the winner of the previous edition returning to defend their title. True to its participatory format, the public is once again invited to vote for their favorite firework display; the winning pyrotechnician is invited to return for the 6th edition.
The evening opens at 7 PM with an opening concert and a food truck village. The pyrotechnic show begins at 9 PM, followed by a DJ set featuring a set created exclusively for the Pyro'Festival, until the doors close at 2 AM.
