Considered one of the music festivals of which Bretons are most proud, Les Vieilles Charrues has been around since 1992, and has never ceased to surprise over the years. Created over 30 years ago, it has rapidly become France's biggest music festival in terms of paid admissions (242,000 admissions in 2010, around 5,500 volunteers in 2010), attracting a public drawn by its eclectic line-up and festive, convivial spirit.
From James Brown in 1997 to Bruce Springsteen in 2009, not forgetting Deep Purple, New Order, Iggy Pop, Patti Smith and Arcade Fire, Les Vieilles Charrues has always attracted people to Brittany!
After a great edition in 2023, Les Vieilles Charrues returned to Carhaix in 2024 with an explosive line-up that drew some 250,000 people! This summer, Sting, PJ Harvey, PLK, Gossip, Grand Corps Malade, Cerrone, Charlotte Cardin and Yungblud put on a show for four consecutive days in Carhaix.
From now on, all eyes will be on the 2025 edition, eagerly awaited by the many regular festival-goers. So, when is this new 33rd edition due to take place? Mark your calendars: Les Vieilles Charrues will be back on the Kerampuilh site in Carhaix from Thursday, July 17 to Sunday, July 20, 2025.
