Music, art, sport and nature combine to give life to a human adventure against a backdrop of ecological awareness
The 2nd Game of Trees Festival kicks off today, Monday July 31, and runs until Friday August 4, 2023. On the program: committed artists from all disciplines: Yannick Noah, Deluxe, Suzane, Kalika, Mentissa, Pablo Servigne, Joe Bel, Lou Dassi, Mado la Niçoise, Papa Ours, the artistic collective La Brume, local craftsmen and producers..
HIGH-FLYING PROGRAMMING IN THE HEART OF THE MOUNTAINS
The Game of Trees Festival offers a wide-ranging program of Grande Nature experiences for all ages and sensibilities. A veritable laboratory for imagining the mountains of tomorrow, it brings together local players and holidaymakers to take up the many challenges of global warming in a positive and mutually supportive way.
Music and theater are on the program for the week, with dancing and laughter by artists of all styles.... They may be used to the summits, but we're not used to seeing them in this environment!
The Festival also aims to shake things up by featuring local artists as opening acts, but also with a program that gives pride of place to women, with 2 100% all-female evenings.
Daytime concerts at altitude will also surprise holidaymakers.
" We created this Festival to transmit positive energies to the public, to preserve our environment, and to support change. Our programming is in harmony with our strong ethical values, following the example of Yannick Noah's commitment. "
Nicolas Bienvenue, Founder of the Game of Trees Festival

LEAVING A LASTING IMPRINT ON OUR ENVIRONMENT
The "Game of Trees Festival" is an invitation to live and share life-size experiences that leave a lasting mark on our environment. Activities will be offered to imagine new narratives and adopt a new outlook on the environment that surrounds us with :
Pablo Servigne, agronomist and doctor of biology, a specialist in collapse, transition and agro-ecology, will open the Festival with a discussion on the growing and urgent challenges facing our environment.
Playful, participatory and immersive outdoor workshops: every day in the resort's central squares and in the forest (tree climbing, zero waste apartment, sensory experiences, storytelling and/or biodiversity discovery walks, Fresque de la Forêt quiz, writing and painting workshops, idea box, recycling centre...)
Encounters and eco-responsible challenges: with eco-adventurers from "Maif Sport Planète", artistic and photographic exhibitions and free wandering.
An opportunity to provide the keys to action for preserving our environment, and the mountains in particular. A path already embarked upon at the heart of Les Orres resort.
