PAKA FESTIVAL

Organized in the middle of summer, on July 20 and 21, 2019, in the heart of Bois du Poulbert, the Paka Festival is the first music and entertainment festival for children and adults organized in La Trinité-sur-Mer. A festival that the organizing team wanted to be family-friendly above all. The festival is committed to a friendly experience by offering two days of music and shows for young and old, with a stage open to live performances for the former and a rich musical programme for the latter. The purpose of this first edition is to bring together the inhabitants of La Trinité-sur-Mer and the surrounding area while opening up to tourists and curious people from all walks of life. The team, composed of about twenty organizers, most of them in their thirties in Morbihan, has surrounded themselves with some 150 volunteers for the project. In the top three of the organizing team, we find friends, all attached to their territory. Steven Hemono, the festival manager, is a former bar manager who has organized many events, parties and festival covers, Georges Le Guennec, the artistic director, is a former film producer for major international festivals, also the creator of the Paka brand, and finally the couple of travel bloggers Arthur Crinquette and Claire Le Bourlot who are better known as "Les droneurs" and bring together a community of more than 60 000 people on social networks.

All are specialized in their field and share the same desire: to make this event an extraordinary moment and to make the festival one of the essential events of the summer period.

On the programme: concerts, entertainment, shows for young and old, but also a strong commitment to reduce the ecological impact of the festival (use of non-polluting vehicles, organic food, waste sorting), while emphasizing the development of sustainable actions (reduced paper consumption, dry toilets, recycled paper furniture and a portion of the profits donated to the association Les Mains Dans Le Sable, which organizes beach cleaning in Brittany). A great event is coming up!
