La Médiévale de Brie Comte Robert 2024 in Seine-et-Marne, a festive and lively weekend awaits you

Do you love medieval festivals? Then don't miss the charming town of Brie Comte Robert on Saturday and Sunday, October 5 and 6, for its Médiévale 2024, a not-to-be-missed event for lovers of history and original festivities.

Over the course of a weekend, you'll be immersed in the atmosphere of feudal France, with street performances, period music and re-enactments. Whether you're a regular or a first-time visitor, this edition promises to be particularly festive. The program unveils a range of talented troupes: Cie Armutan bewitches us with its traditional music, while the navigators of Cie Belli Mercator fascinate us with their crazy mythological tales. Those who prefer action will be delighted by Cie Keras and its show "L'Amour en Batailles", a miniature re-enactment for young audiences.

In a carnival atmosphere, Cie Bohemian Karavan invites you to a divination session with Lizzie, the fortune-teller. And for fans of jokes and juggling, Cies Les Griboulets and Les Baladeux bring humor and acrobatic prowess to the city streets. Music and dance are not to be outdone, with lively performances by Cie Les Tritons Ripailleurs and La Rioule des Compagnons du Monde, promising a lively, festive medieval atmosphere.

This historic rendezvous also features a host of travelling events. As you stroll through the narrow streets of Brie-Comte-Robert, you'll come across Cie Ambraluna, charming you with their melodious melodies, or Cie Daridel, whose tribal percussion sounds are sure to please. Folklore fans can join in with the troubadours' songs led by Cie Saltabraz, while Cie Sembadelle amuses young and old with its offbeat humor.

The highlight of the Médiévale will undoubtedly be the Grand Défilé, scheduled for Sunday, October 6 at 3pm. The procession will leave from rue Gambetta and wind its way through the historic heart of the town, all the way to the square in front of the church of Saint-Étienne. Costumed visitors are invited to join the colorful parade.

Those wishing to extend their medieval experience by night can take advantage of the Nuit Blanche, with a torchlight procession and musical entertainment well into the night. You can transform yourself for the occasion at the sewing workshop, open until October 2, where period costumes can be hired.
