Born in 1977, the Printemps de Bourges moved all the hubbub of contemporary music right into the heart of France with five days of non-stop
concerts.
For over thirty years, the principal has remained the same :
discovery, mixing of genres, and audacity
Some of the greatest artists of their day have passed through here: Yves Montand, Francis Cabrel, Serge Gainsbourg, Indochine, Manu Chao, Johnny Clegg, Kassav', I Muvrini, les Rita Mitsouko, Eddy Mitchell, Les Négresses Vertes, Henri Salvador, Joe Cocker, MC Solaar, Patricia Kaas, Noir Désir, Yann Tiersen, Vincent Delerm, Dionysos, les Têtes Raides, Bénabar, Cali, Franz Ferdinand...
« Le Printemps » is not only about concerts ; it’s also an opportunity for professionals of the world of music to get together, and an occasion for a myriad of impromptu happenings in the streets, courtyards, cafés, and bars all over town. Learn moreThe Printemps de Bourges Music Festival
