Mir redde Platt 2026 — Festival of Lorraine Francique and Regional Languages

A Sarreguemines festival dedicated to Platt, the Francique lorrain language, and its living cultural transmission.

About this event


Mir redde Platt is one of the clearest regional-identity events in the Grand Est calendar. Based in Sarreguemines, the 2026 edition celebrates the Francique lorrain, known locally as Platt, as a living language rather than a museum object. The programme mixes performances, encounters, heritage visits, workshops and cultural conversations, giving space to a language carried by families, border history, popular speech and local memory. The 2026 theme, Les voix de la Terre, frames the language as a voice of place: rooted in Lorraine, open to neighbouring cultures and still capable of shaping contemporary artistic creation. This is a high-value entry for a regional culture website because it directly supports linguistic transmission and the visibility of a minority language of the Grand Est.
