During the show from 9 pm, visitors in the arena will have the opportunity to move and dance to the very different melodies of a unique Silent Disco, which will take place in the Jardin Doret. From composer Joseph Bovet to DJ David Guetta, there is something for everyone! A veritable reservoir of artists, the canton of Fribourg will take festival visitors to many divergent musical worlds. Notably with a participatory work that will make its mark in the history of the festival, the Fribourg artistry will have a privileged place and will surprisingly intermingle with other areas.
