Détours de Babel
The Détours de Babel Festival
As the focal point where these various actions come together, the Détours de Babel Festival is held for three weeks each spring, throughout the Grenoble urban area and Isère, in collaboration with partner venues, including events at museums and heritage sites, as well as in neighbourhoods, local gathering places and living spaces.
More than 80 concerts and shows, many of which are currently being created, are put on each year at more than 40 venues in 20 towns around Isère.
Performances and shows, participative and fun events, brunches, “living room” concerts, installations, meetings and workshops offer a diverse range of experiences, bringing together professionals and amateurs, as well as different segments of the public, around this melting pot of musical creativity.
