Café Breton’s Trad Festival opens another dinner-show evening in Perros-Guirec with BBBB on the program. The format combines a seated meal with a traditional music concert, using reservation-only access and a concert fee to keep the room focused on listening conditions.

Jeud’his en Ronde in Guingamp: Young Celtic Circles
Jeud’his en Ronde brings five children’s Celtic circles together in Guingamp for a parade and shared performance. Groups from Guingamp, Châtelaudren, Paimpol, Plérin and Saint-Brieuc take over Place du Centre and Rue Notre-Dame with a program built around Breton dance, music and youth participation. The value of the event is in its scale: children are not simply watching a tradition, they are carrying it publicly through the town. If the weather is poor, the performance moves to the Cadolan sports complex.
Un été animé à Guingamp: Games, River Sports and Puppet Theatre
Un été animé à Guingamp sets up an afternoon of family activities around the public garden and the banks of the Trieux.
