Rochefort Sérénades

The 'Thurs-Friday' was fun... until Wednesday became much more festive.

This year, the Rochefort Sérénades are celebrating a special anniversary: 20 years of music, conviviality, and summer evenings in the heart of Rochefort.

For 7 consecutive Wednesdays from July 8th to August 19th, the Square de l’Amicale transforms into the true summer meeting place. An open-air stage, a warm atmosphere, and an eclectic program will keep the city vibrant throughout the season.

6:30 PM: Discovery and Participation

The evening begins with a music competition, where two bands present their creations to the public. For one evening, spectators become jury members through a public vote. A unique opportunity to help discover the talents of tomorrow.

9:00 PM: Time for the Concert

The second part of the evening is dedicated to a decidedly festive concert performed by a guest band. Featuring catchy covers and diverse musical styles — pop, ska, rock, or rockabilly — each event promises a convivial and unifying musical experience.

More than just a series of concerts, the Rochefort Sérénades have become a true summer ritual. People gather there with friends, family, or after a day of exploring the region. This event brings together an eclectic audience who come to listen, applaud, share a drink, and enjoy the long summer evenings in a warm setting.

Access to the Rochefort Sérénades is completely free and no reservation is needed. To complete the experience, a bar and a local food truck will be present during the 7 Wednesdays of the event.
