Les Pestacles 2024, the music festival for kids in the Parc Floral

Les Pestacles is the summertime highlight for children and parents in Paris, where they can discover the performing arts and make the Parc Floral their own. All generations come together at the Parc Floral to enjoy concerts, meet artists, rediscover the circus and read books.

The Bois de Vincennes plays host to this summer rendezvous for the very young, which returns on Wednesdays from June 26 to September 4, 2024, with a program as dynamic as it is eclectic to share with the whole family in the verdant calm of this famous Parisian garden. With a diversity of styles, these shows give children a chance to spend their summer days outdoors, while learning about the world of artistic creation and awakening their curiosity.

Les Pestacles, created more than 20 years ago by the City of Paris, is a children's festival that is a great success every summer with Parisians staying in Paris, as well as visitors from the Paris region. It's an original opportunity to discover artists for young audiences, and to share enjoyable moments and activities in the lovely setting of the Parc Floral.
