The Rendez-vous aux jardins return for the weekend of June 5–7, 2026, with a rich program spanning across Paris and the Île-de-France region. In Montreuil, in Seine-Saint-Denis, the celebration takes on the atmosphere of a countryside, artistic fête at the Théâtre de verdure de la Girandole.
On the doorstep of Paris, you can head out for a weekend with your feet in the grass to enjoy a lively burst of festive programming. The Girandole is a company and a creative hub well known in Montreuil. Since the opening of its theatre in 2007, it has offered an eclectic lineup blending theatre, contemporary dance, concerts and performances for all ages. When the sunny days arrive, they willingly leave the walls of the venue to take up a more unexpected setting: their Théâtre de verdure, set on a plot lent by the city, within the historic site of the Murs à pêches.
This site harks back to the days when Montreuil was famed for its fruit orchards, notably peaches trained along long walls. The walls absorbed the sun’s heat by day and released it at night, giving the trees a microclimate that favored fruit ripening. This landscape was created in the 17th century for espalier peaches, and today it serves as a place of transmission, gardening, ecological experimentation, and cultural activities.
The Verdure Theater at La Girandole opens its doors on June 6 and 7 for the 16th edition of its festival “Under the Peach Trees, the Beach”,
Filled with happiness, sharing, togetherness and emotion! From June 6 to 7, 2026, we’ll make the city pulse to music, move to dance, hear the theatre’s words, and watch the circus’s acrobatics. We’ve put together a lineup that’s popular, balanced, and above all accessible to everyone.
“Under the Peach Trees, the Beach #16” is: two days of celebration, about ten artists, around fifty volunteers, mountains of pasta, local beers, and, above all, boundless energy!
