About Ré-Majeure
An exceptional festival on the Île de Ré
The Ré-Majeure festival has become since 2010 an essential event for classical music on the Île de Ré. Under the artistic direction of conductor Marc Minkowski, founder of Les Musiciens du Louvre, the festival offers an ambitious and eclectic program that aims to highlight young virtuoso musicians in their disciplines.
A varied and innovative program
The festival is distinguished by its desire to create bridges between eras and musical styles. On the program: classical concerts, tributes to great artists, original themed evenings, and "concertôt(s)" (morning concerts) in unusual heritage sites on the island. This diversity allows it to reach all audiences, from seasoned music lovers to families discovering classical music.
Exceptional heritage venues
The concerts take place in several towns on the Île de Ré, notably in Loix, La Couarde-sur-Mer, and other remarkable heritage sites. This enhancement of the island's architectural heritage adds a unique dimension to the musical experience offered to spectators.
