Zic à Nouic: Music at the heart of Haut Limousin

The Zic à Nouic festival is a human adventure born from the will of a small circle of friends with diverse profiles, united by their love for live music and their deep attachment to their rural territory. Located in Nouic, a charming village in the Monts de Blond in northwestern Haute-Vienne, this associative festival has been patiently built, edition after edition, to become a must-attend event for contemporary music in Haut Limousin.

An eclectic and diverse program

The strength of Zic à Nouic lies in the diversity of its musical programming. From rock to reggae, including electro, blues, afrobeat, and French chanson, the festival offers a rich and surprising sound journey. Among the artists who have graced the stage are bands like Larural, Keltas, Curtis Simmons Band, and Les Insupportables. The program also includes a cine-concert, workshops for children, and a friendly banquet that brings together festival-goers and locals.

A human-sized festival village

The originality of Zic à Nouic lies in its intimate and accessible format. The festival village, set up on the outskirts of Nouic towards Mézières-sur-Issoire, offers free daytime access with a bar, food, and entertainment. Evening concerts are accessible for a modest fee of €10, and the traditional Sunday ball costs only €5. Camping is available for festival-goers, reinforcing the spirit of conviviality and sharing that characterizes the event.

A festival powered by its volunteers

Zic à Nouic is above all a collective adventure driven by a joyful band of volunteers determined to promote contemporary music in the Haut Limousin en Marche region. The project evolves slowly but surely, with an artistic program that grows with each edition according to the association's financial capacity. This festival perfectly embodies the spirit of small rural cultural events that bring French countryside to life and create social connections in areas often far from major cultural scenes.
