From March 7 to 29, 2026, the charming town of Yerres is set to come alive with the vibrant energy of the 23rd edition of the Francopoésies Festival, one of the must-attend events during the Poets’ Spring in the Paris region. Since 2001, Yerres has hosted this annual festival celebrating all facets of Francophone poetry—including readings, music, conferences, open mics, and exhibitions—across various venues throughout the town. For three weeks, the entire area becomes a stage to honor words, voices, and poetic beats.
By 2026, the event will be part of the Poets’ Spring, a national cultural movement held annually in March. The theme for this edition in 2026? A tribute to Jacques Canetti, a key figure in 20th-century French music. A visionary producer and talent scout, Canetti worked behind the scenes during the 1950s-70s, especially at the Théâtre des Trois Baudets in Paris, where he helped launch the careers of many legendary artists.
Throughout March, various venues in Yerres—including the André Malraux Hall, Saint-Honest Church, and Grange au Bois—are hosting a range of events: recitals, theatrical performances, poetry nights, interactive discussions, workshops, and of course, literary sharing sessions.
