Whether you're a pure product of Brittany or just love galettes bretonnes, the Fête de la Bretagne is coming to the capital with a lovely, all-butter program from May 16 to 25, 2025, to let you enjoy the beauties of this region! Ground Control invites you to a special day on Saturday, May 17, for a taste of the region and its cultural and culinary traditions, from Kouign-amann to Bagad de Lann-Bihoué!
From amarket of craftsmen and producers to discover the know-how and flavors of the Breton terroir, to workshops on how to make your own inimitable Breton bowl or salted butter caramel, an initiation to traditional Breton dances and a concert, there's enough to spend an Armorican day without getting bored for a single second. An opportunity to travel outside the capital, without going beyond the ring road (even if we do miss the sea, after all!).
You can also enjoy a menu of Breton beers and ciders in the bars, and a Breton-inspired dish in Ground Control's restaurants! Don't forget to register in advance for the various free events, so you don't miss a thing!
Cap à l'Ouest - Podcast listening session - 12pm-4pm
Why not turn your ear to Brittany? A land of legends, lighthouses, sea foam and intimate stories, it reveals itself here in sound and emotion. From Brest to Brocéliande, from Alain's poetic daily life to Marine Baousson's offbeat escapades, this listening session takes you on a journey of sound as rich as it is unexpected. Make yourself comfortable (free seating, no seatbelt required) and listen as Brittany speaks to you: she has a thousand stories to whisper.
The Keriz bagad puts on a Breton show with its friends from the Mibien Ar Mor Celtic Circle in Poissy and the fest-noz group Le cri des mouettes. Created in Clichy in 1980, bagad Keriz blends tradition and modernity in its writing and arrangements. It offers a contemporary, orchestrated Breton sound. Bagpipes, bombards, snare drums and other instruments... Come and listen to the performance of bagad Keriz and its friends in a unique show!
All day long, the Palet Saint-Germain Association will be putting Brittany in the spotlight with a 100% Breton activity: palet breton!
Come and learn or measure yourself against your friends at this traditional game typical of Brittany. Skill, precision, good humor... everything you need to have a great time!
Braan is a neo-trad duo, inspiring connections between Breton music and dance through the expression of cosmopolitan emotions. An invitation to travel, Braan's rhythms and tunes transport the spirit to the heights of the imagination. Braan is a builder of worlds, a blend of memories of ancient times and journeys to come, a flight of organic pulsations, a sidereal ensemble to the sound of ancestral cultures. The alchemy of futuristic accents and respect for tradition fuse to reveal the very best of Braan, the stripped-down sound of an unfailing friendship.
