The summer of 2021 promises to be more enjoyable than that of last year. Following government announcements at the end of April, many festivals are making their return official. After the Nuits de Fourvière in Lyon, it is the turn of Printemps de Bourges to confirm its presence and unveil its program. In total, more than thirty shows spread between the Auron Palace, the auditorium, the Jacques Coeur theater and palace as well as the Noirlac Abbey and the Cathedral. About thirty young talents will also be on stage from June 23 to 25, as part of the Inouïs du Printemps de Bourges.
Organizers ultimately decided to postpone the festival from June 22 to 27, originally scheduled for May 4 to 9.
One way to take advantage of the relaxation of health rules, since the Printemps de Bourges will take place after the 3rd deconfinement stage on June 9, which will allow events for 5,000 people with presentation of a health pass, and allow the curfew to be postponed. at 11 p.m.
The organizers specified that “
all the shows will take place with a limited capacity, in a seated configuration and with the wearing of a compulsory mask
.” The rooms planned being all with a capacity of less than 1000 people, this will in principle make it possible to bypass the obligation. health pass.
