Description
The Santo-Estello is the Félibrige Congress-Festival, which has taken place every year since 1876 in a different city in the Pays d'Oc (32 departments in the south of France).
This annual five-day cultural and festive event aims to promote regional culture. It features concerts, meetings, conferences, theater, debates, shows, and various activities, all aimed at the general public.
The city that receives the Santo-Estello becomes the capital of the Occitan countries, a showcase of Occitan traditions and artistic creations.
The City of Saint-Tropez first hosted this event in 1955 and has once again offered to host it from June 6 to 10, 2025.
