All About: Festival du Roi Arthur 2026

Word has spread throughout the Kingdom: the King is summoning his subjects once more as the Roi Arthur festival lowers its drawbridge from August 21st to 23rd, welcoming tens of thousands of subjects from all over the nation.

Based just outside of Rennes, the festival has become one of Brittany’s largest. While its identity takes inspiration from medieval times, the lineup is firmly rooted in the present. From French superstar Théodora to rock sisters Nova Twins, a talented lineup will perform across five stages. The festival also highlights rising artists like Asfar Shamsi, as well as local artists and traditional music with the Bagad Bro Konk Kerne. 

Truly independent, the festival is community-led and almost entirely self-funded. Tickets are still available but almost sold out for Friday, don’t miss the King’s call. Tickets can be bought here.
