The uncertainties around the festivals in the summer of 2024. “We have known for several weeks that the date of 2023 was uncertain because of his state of health. We had started working on a date in 2024 as part of a tour project, it was to be July 11, 2024 for the Vieilles Charrues”, explains Jérôme Tréhorel, director of the Vieilles Charrues, interviewed on France Bleu.
