Château Perché’s 10th edition, held July 24 to 27 at Château de Farcheville, brings 6,900 attendees to a lineup of over 400 international artists, turning a medieval castle into a global music hub. The theme, “Once upon a time there was a graphic fantasy utopia,” sets the stage with dress codes like “Vermillon Love Legion,” but it’s the sound that crosses borders. From amapiano’s South African rhythms to psytrance’s European roots, melodic techno’s atmospheric layers, and live bands from every corner, this festival delivers a world tour in four days.
Eleven stages keep the energy flowing. Le Mirador de l’Amor pairs sweeping views with soulful house, while Le Colombier thumps with trance’s relentless kicks. La Cour d’honneur hosts live acts under glowing lights, blending jazz improvisation with electronic beats, and Le Jardin à la Française offers a polished mix of genres against manicured grounds. With artists from over 20 countries, you might catch a UK garage set followed by a Brazilian percussion ensemble—all framed by the castle’s ancient stone. It’s a sonic passport stamped with every beat.
The festival’s eco-focus shines through a vegetarian menu of regional dishes and reusable dishware, while shuttles from eight cities cut emissions. The moral commitment form ties attendees to values of Respect, Ecology, Safety, and Awakening, creating a shared mission. Press can explore this global gathering via guided tours, witnessing how Château Perché balances heritage and innovation. The Exploration Village adds workshops to connect with artists, but the real draw is the music—a diverse, borderless celebration that makes this castle a melting pot of sound.
