During the month of June, the town of Courbevoie becomes the Capital of the Word and celebrates it in all its forms, welcoming some thirty artists for a wide range of free, participatory events, from theater to music, from writing to speaking. From June 6 to 29, 2025, the theme of this year's"Mots Libres" will be"En corps des mots" ("In the body of words"), through dance, the five senses and space, with shows, exhibitions, workshops, meetings, literary concerts, debates, readings and performances.
Children and adults alike are expected to take part in this festival, at five venues forming the Boulevard des Mots. Numerous word workers - poets, rappers, teachers, writers and actors - will be on hand to showcase creative work around these small, indispensable elements of our daily lives, which unite us and enable us to express our ideas and feelings.
On this occasion, you'll be able to attend the launch of the 3rd edition of the Prix des Bruyères, a short story writing competition, the winners of which will be published in the form of a collection by Novice, as well as the presentation of the Prix Libraires en Seine organized by the bookshops of Hauts-de-Seine.
